Most pro co-ax cables now have the length marked thereon so you can
workout the length very accurately...

Only if you went to school on the day they did take away sums.

Not just pro. The last reel of CT-100 I bought from CPC has this too.

I note that you don't mention that this type of cable is also totally
unsuitable for ANY applications where transmit + receive is involved
(with the possible exception of very, very short lengths).

Bugger all that, I still use 22/7 for Pi.

Far as I'm concerned if a cable drum is 300mm across there's a metre on
each
turn.

You've lost me now. I just twist my head ot the side a bit, squint a
little and say something like 'there's about 30 metres on that'. No
idea how big the wotsit is on the thingy!

In my days of never-ending domestic installs I would look at the cable drum
and know if it held enough to do the downlead I was about to do, without
having any idea of how many yards or metres of cable were on it.

Yeah, I have that on the numerous (20ish) part used boxes of cat5e I
have in the stores. Problem is, some start at 0m, some start at 305m
and some start at 39,876m or something. Not many of them tell you any
ofthis though so you still have no idea how much is left. With cat5 I
can generally tell how much is in the box by weight.

Oh it is OK for Tx/Rx. You just arrange something to toggle the centre core
discombobulator grid bias deflector ratio between a negative and positive
value (relative to the total electrostatic phlangescance of course) at each
change over. Peace of **** really once you know how. Would you like a
diagram?
