Coax cable interferance?
 
I was wondering if passing a coaxial cable used for antenna very close to
electronics like TV, stereo, etc. will cause some intereferance that could
penetrate inside? I need to run the cable to balcony for my antenna and
electronics are in my way.

depends on the shielding of the coax.
General rule is there shouldn't be any problem.

You'll only have a problem if you're running a lot of power and the
shielding is poor quality, or if there's current on the outside of the
coax. Current on the outside can be reduced with a "current" or "choke"
balun.
