==Basics==
RF Cables can be expensive. And easily broken per that Amp hour which I can't find (the search engine is not helping) at the moment. It was around 300-450.

* todo: find which amp hour that was.

==Tips\Techniques==
===Finding a break in a cable===
A couple resources.

* Using a TDR to find the break. https://forum.allaboutcircuits.com/threads/using-a-time-domain-reflectometer-tdr-to-find-a-fault.110637/ (I did not read the link, but just want to post something to show there are other results out there).

* https://theamphour.com/481-an-interview-with-paul-thompson/ - This is the fellow from the amp hour whom builds electric fences. If I remember right, they discuss fault finding in wires (I think he has some custom solution to this).

* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOzEpJogSFg LER / Learn electronics repair. Per hackaday. He uses just Capacitance. This is one of those techniques you hear about, but forget if you don't use it. So I'm posting it here as a reference. In this example, he is comparing it to the capacitance of some other wires, which means you may need multiple conductors for this method to work.
