Lines: 11 My VHS HiFi deck is located about 20' away from my stereo components, so in order to record FM simulcasts and play back through my stereo system, I'll have rather long runs of cables carrying line-level signals. Are there any problems which could arise from this-- frequency response aberrations, increased noise or hum, etc. Should I buy special cables, or will any rotgut $1.99 department store cable do? -- /Steve Dyer {decvax,linus,ima,ihnp4}!bbncca!sdyer sdyer@bbncca.ARPA
