2.
Short the inner to the outer conductor on one end of the cable.
3.
Measure the resistance from the inner to the outer conductors on the opposite end. Must be low
resistance (<1
Ω).
4.
If available, measure the SWR of the completed cable with a 50
Ω dummy load installed in place
of the antenna. SWR of cable should remain around 1 in the frequency range of 800MHz to
2.6GHz if terminations are good quality.
5.
An SWR of 1.04 or higher should be corrected.
