I have to replace my antenna tower so I'm planning on putting up a 70 foot tower using a Diamond 130J Omni-directional antenna. I have been using LMR 400 coax cable.I monitor 460-470Mhz but most is 800Mhz.
My question is the the distance between the antenna and the receiver (Uniden BCD996XT) will be about 200 ft., will I have a lot of loss on 800Mhz reception? Is there anything I can do to help if there is loss.
I live in a rural area so I need to increase my height to receive distant signals. Any help would be apprecieated!
