@kilroy_was_here below 30 feet even the worst performing coax will have negligable losses. Just make sure it can handle the power rating. You need over 3x that length before it starts to matter, even then youd need high swr.

Kilroy_Was_Here (kilroy_was_here@dobbs.town)'s status on Monday, 29-Jan-2024 13:35:05 JST Kilroy_Was_Here I WAS originally considering RG-8X for my #AmateurRadio portable activities, but I feel it may be too big and bulky for #QRP.
Regular QRP operators, what is your favourite small coaxial cable type?
If it helps, I don't plan on any cable being longer than 30 feet.
