I have a few questions for the group about a portale setup I'm orking on. I intend to use it for both linear transponder and FM satellites. the setup will consist of yagis for V and U mounted on a camera tripod with a short run 5-6 feet of coax to the radios. the first thing i'd like to know is: is it worth it to put something like lmr 400 ultraflex or will rg 213 work well. also would it be benificial to have a preamp to mount on the feedpoint of the downlink antenna? -Steve VA3SAX
