Just curious... Seems to me I read somewhere that extra coax between
antenna and radio should not be managed in a coil. Any truth to this? If
so, what's the issue?


Extra *ladder-line* should not be coiled up. For coax, coiling
actually reduces the common mode current which is a good thing.
There is some attenuation in the length of coax used for the
coil but if the proper coax is chosen and the SWR is low, those
extra losses will probably be negligible.
