Hi Minto,

I don't think so. There should be no difference between a 5m and 10m long cable. I think about a capacitive divider. The probe has about 3 pF, that's one plate of the C. The other one is the cable and metal connected. Once if this part of the C has say >10 * 3 pF, the difference between longer cables become smaller and smaller.

I think it is just the S/N that rises due to lower becoming noise and higher signal levels. On a flat field without trees and houses, you have excellent reception even with a 2m pole :-)
