I installed a 2.4 g radio system, I'm having trouble.
I ran 100 ft of RG 58 in a EMT / Ridged pipe with a mast on top.
Can EMT or ridged pipe for thirty feet effect the radio waves and transmit
careerists of the radio?

I estimate the loss of 100' of RG58 to be in the vicinity of -30dB. That means
1/1000th of your received signal makes it to the radio and 1/1000th of the
transmit signal actually gets radiated. Sure fire formula for failure. Go get
some LMR-400 or LMR-600 cable and connectors.
