VHF Antenna cable length

[rblochli]

Installed a new 14' VHF antenna this weekend replacing my 9'6" Galaxy that has seen better days. Is it better to cut the cable to length or is it okay to leave a couple feet in a loose coil? I think I remember cutting last time. Thanks.

I would leave some extra wire tied with zip ties somewhere out of the way. You never know when you might need the length. It might save you some work down the road.
