Hanno,
the control cable from the FC-40 to the FT-897 was a home made, 10m
long. I installed clap-on ferrites at both ends near the plugs, not
sure if they were necessary, but no problem with rf.
Plugs and ferrites were obtained from Reichelt electronic in DL.
My cable is shielded, the shield connected to GND at both ends.
Diameter, if I remeber right 0.14mm, that is the best you can fit into
the mini plugs.

Do you have extension cable for the remote controller? I think the
cable between radio an FC 40 is short. I have produced my own extension
cable 15m and in total I can use 20m with the original one. No
prpblem for
the tuning finction, but some HF cause problems for some "automatic"
retuning of the FC 40.
