Why is 10' of cable a bad idea.
I am not doing MIMO, but I have cables from 8" to 145' working just fine.
And, the real question wasn't about using cables, but do they need to be
the same length.
Since MIMO is looking for the best signal and/or combining what is sees
from reflections/refractions, I would not see that a difference in cable
length would make much difference.

I'm going to use dual polarity antennas, and so I'm wondering if I need to use
very closely matching cable lengths for the cables that connect the radio to
the wire? The board / radio are inside the building, and the antennas will
be about 10 feet away, or so.
Is this an issue to be concerned about?
Anyone know?
