[ARC5] ARB Receiver Bowden Cable

[Michael Hanz]

It's really up to the user, Wayne.  In aircraft, there was a mock-up 
stage where prospective locations with receivers, transmitters, etc. 
were made in the airframe, and control boxes and the like were then 
placed wherever made the best sense from a usability standpoint. Then 
all the supporting cables were laid out and measured.  Any user needs to 
do the same thing with their setup.  A tuning cable may be as short as a 
foot, or as long as 30 feet.   (Okay, hopefully not that long, but it 
was in some of the larger patrol aircraft.) Shorter is better because 
there is more torsional twist in a longer cable, making accurate 
frequency setting more difficult.  I've found less than two to three 
feet to be acceptable.
