Things get interesting if you have, say, 10 feet of unterminated coax. 10 MHz is 100 ns, or 50 ns between transitions. Coax is ballpark of 5/8 c so that's 16 ns one way or 32 ns round drip. That's 60% of the heat as well as lots of nasty reflections. (Somebody please check my numbers.) -- These are my opinions.
