Obviously, height *and* good cable is the best. But if you're in a
situation where it's one or the other, go for height first, replace
the cable later if you can.

Or go for the height and use a good low noise preamp mounted right at
the antenna.

Yeah that's another good option as well.. a decent preamp can cost
quite a bit less than a long run of great cable like 9913 or 400..
