| RG 405 cable has a solid teflon dielectric, and a velocity factor of 0.69. To get the 8.2 degrees of additional phase on the LO output at 21.5 MHz then requires 22 cm of cable. I made a cable that ended up being 21 cm long after I'd gained some experience putting on the connector. It gives a phase difference between LO and RF of about 10 degrees. It is currently installed. |
