The problem started when I cut the cable in half on accident. It's a very small coaxial cable. Question is, can you just solder it back and expect it to work OK? Joe No. You should get a male and female UHF connector suitable for the coax you cut, (find a local HAM and he'll be able to tell exactly which connector will work best), install the new connector on the cut ends and join the cable that way. You will still get a small loss but it won't be too bad. DO NOT follow the Boobsters advice and just splice the thing together like you were fixing a busted lamp cord.
