There is no apparent change, so I may have to cut the transmit power.

Hi,
I am trying to eliminate channel error by using a cable to
connect two RFX400s together. The strange thing is that nothing
useful seems to get through when the radios are connected by
cable. I have tried attenuation in the range from 0 to 40dB and
with several cables to no avail. Using antennas works much better.
Do you know what is wrong? And what should the cable attenuation be?
The cable attenuation needs to be at least 40 dB for safety. It
probably needs to be more for signal integrity. Have you adjusted
the receive gain downwards to compensate for the high signal levels?
