[XV] Coax Daisychain on XV Transverters

[M0XDF]

For those of your with multiple XV series Transverters…
When you daisy chain the RF between them, have you found the length of that cable is significant or is keeping it short, say 20cm ok?

I have 3 of them stacked on a shelf above my K3. From the K3 to the first
transverter the cables are around 50cm or so... I think I used RG-8x.  The
IF cables daisy chained from one XV to the next are about 15cm in length
and are RG-174. I originally used RG-8X there too, but they had to be much
longer than necessary in order to have a reasonable bend radius.
Has been working well for years. Hope that helps.
