The only caution I would give you is to be sure that the coax is good enough if you are running a linear. I saw one guy keying an 800 watts rms amplifier through some RG-58 coaxial cable. It was really warm to the touch and I advised him to change it to RG-213.

He didn't listen and the cable shorted out and he let the "Magic Smoke" of the amplifier.

The first thing he said, "DON'T YOU DARE SAY I TOLD YOU SO!"
