I purchased my P3 second-hand.  I have always wondered why the IF Out to 
IF In cable was so blasted short.  I mean, it's only about 12.5" long.  
With that length, my P3 sits on the left of my K3. That would be the 
handle side of the K3.  I never could understand why that was.  Well, I 
think I have figured it out - it's not the correct cable...  Okay, 
that's fine.

I have some spare cables lying around and thought I'd give them a 
whirl.  Well, they're not 50ohm cables.  One is labeled "Tensolite Style 
1354."  That is a 93ohm cable (I have no idea where I picked that up).  
The other is RG59.  I know that is 75ohm cable.  It came out of an old 
analog m/w shot from the RF shelf to the BB shelf.  In my thinking 
(which is wrong a lot of times), either should be okay. I just want my 
P3 on the right of the K3 to satisfy my OCDness...

I know I'm asking for it, but what do y'all think?

73,
Joel - W4JBB
