OK - I've been living off my handheld, remnant from my last boat, and decided to get a fixed mount unit for my Seafari. I had the boatyard do the install on my last boat, and don't remember how it was layed out, or know if they cut the cable to length.

What is the general consensus on installing the antenna, where there is excess length of cable ?

1 - Cut to length to fit

2 - don't cut, coil the excess

3 - don't cut, stow the excess loosely / random

4 - other

Appreciate your wisdom

thanks

Bill
