The manual says 3 ft. of "shielded cable". Since the xtal input of your xmtr is high impedance, RG-58 or RG-59 should make no difference for that short a run. The buffer output coils (L-3, L-4) should be peaked per the manual because they resonate with the cable capacitance.

GA All, 
Anyone know the specified length of the output coax of the V-44 VFO. 
I am assuming it is RG-59 coax.....is that correct? 
Tnx de Bill K4JYS
