[TowerTalk] Most reliable way to test coax?

[Wilson Lamb <infomet@embarqmail.com>]

After all the recent talk about losses and switchboxes, you know how to test by 
simply leaving the far end open and measuring SWR. 

Use your xcvr as a source and test at your operating freq. 

The dummy load is a fine power test, but not a good loss test, unless you 
carefully measure power at both ends
