Another way to look at Coax loss, I have always lost guys talking about dB loss and this chart also includes Watts loss and brings the point home PS 70cm would be your reference for GMRS performance! EVIL COAX CHART FOR 2M & 70CM.pdf

my favorite RF reference book is (do not buy it from link way to expensive I found one for $20 but thought it was worth sharing. Radio Handbook, Twenty Third Edition 23rd Edition by William Orr (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Radio-Handbook-Twenty-Third-William/dp/0750699477

made a video about them!
