[Boatanchors] Drake cable question

[Ron Bussiere via Boatanchors]

 Hi Jim. I just picked that as a standard. I have 22 Drakes, and these twins will be very close to each other. The cable has been cut to within 1/16"......
Gonna measure tomorrow.

Will 3 ft. be sufficient for your installation?  I would measure what you 
will be using.

Thanks to all who have responded. I'm gonna do a simple experiment....
I have several lab quality cap meters/bridges. One is traceable to NIST 
standards.
When I finally find my RG-62, I am going to measure the capacity of it and 
every other coaxial cable I can get my paws on.
I think a 3 foot sample will be OK.
Comments??
