CDM1250 Control Head Cable

Post by Mikey »

Ok, I need to make a custom Control Head cable for a remote mounted CDM1250, the control head cable length will be roughly 65 feet. Can this be done with that legth of cable? The control head will not be used to control the radio at all, it will only be needed to display the channel that it is on, radio in basement is tone controlled with Channel steering so radio control head is disabled because of channel steering anyway.

I think it would probably work just fine.
