Bret (I think it was) how would you phase two R8s - surely you could only do
it for one band?

What matching system would you use?

Well in this case (according to Butternut) the hF 6V  uses the full 26 feet 
on 10 meters, acting as a 3/4 wave vertical.   In fact, the adjustment for 
10 meters is  at the very top of the antenna.

And while I agree with the others that 150 feet is no place to skimp on 
coax, I think he has bigger problems than  cable loss  right now.
