Coax impedance for vfo signal between raduino and bitx boards.


 

I am planning to use thin coax for the Raduino vfo output, what would be better 50, 75, or maybe 90 ohm?


 

For short lengths of coax at HF? (not VHF or UHF) it wont matter what you use. the load impedance gets applied ? to the source

here is the linked info.

What is the cable impedance and when it is needed? The basic idea is that a conductor at RF frequencies no longer behaves like a regular old wire. As the length of the conductor (wire) approaches about 1/10 the wavelength of the signal it is carrying - good ol' fashioned circuit analysis rules don't apply anymore. This is the point where things like cable impedance and transmission line theory enter the picture.
