	making audio patch cable
Hi, I'd like to run the tape output from one receiver to another's Aux. or tape input. They are about 100' apart. Should I use Twisted pair? Coax? What cable would you suggest for this use? Thanks, Robbie

Dear Robbie, As the connectors are most likely RCA type jacks, a coaxial cable or a shielded pair is best suited. Use a heavy guage cable (min 22 AWG) to limit the loss due to the extreme length. Sincerely, Joseph Golan, RCDD
