I agree completely with both of you. I don't run RG58 for anything except my 
go kit, in vacation setups where I have to run it through a window but I 
avoid anything higher than 20 meters on vacation anyway because the cable 
lines and stuff are so bad that 10, 12, probably 15 would probably raise 
heck with them. Beyond that and even then if I can get away with it, I won't 
run it, and even then it's very short runs. Long runs, definitely not.
