But at 50 MHz, it kind of looks like about 59 mW/ft (because the
resistance is 1.2 ohms/100ft)
Remember to take duty cycle, ambient temperatures, and the coax exposure
to free air into account when considering dissipation limits. Duty cycle
strongly depends on transmission modes and operating style. Rag chewing
with keydown modes like RTTY or FM are more demanding than RTTY
contesting or WSJT modes; CW less so, and SSB even less.
