"I took an STL transmitter to the receive site, after the coax jumper was 
replaced, and hooked it to the receive antenna with a directional wattmeter. 
Forward power was 6.3 watts, and reflected power was 0.15 watts."

With that much coax, you may.......MAY........have a problem at the receive 
antenna

Just my $ 0.02
