Thanks Walter - Pretty much what I was thinking, but thought I would ask. That 
only costs a couple electrons and a minute.

Should not be a problem. Good ol’ RG-58 has 0.083 dB loss in three feet of 
cable at 50 MHz. That is about 2% of the signal. Another 2% won’t matter.

I am going to be doing the temperature compensation procedure for my KX3. The 
sheet for the XG50 says I can use a 3' 50-ohm cable. This probably seems like a 
silly question, but is it a big deal if I use a 6' cable? Is the signal so weak 
I have to worry about that extra (???) loss?
