Thanks for the responses. Confirms what I thought, but I was not aware of the minimum length suggestion. Good info.
DIY Digital cable question
Need to make a short digital cable using Supra Trico coax cable. There is a double braid on this cable. The inner braid is the signal return. The outer copper braid is for additional shielding. When I asked the Supra rep how to connect the outer shield, he said to just let it float. Everything I have read said it needs to be connected to ground on one end or the other. (Wish Almarg was still with us)
Thanks for the input.
