John,
Your wiring sounds a lot like mine. I installed 4-pin molex quick disconnects
at the wing root for the strobes. I want to say it took 13-14 feet from tip to
root including service loop. I ran my wires all in a single conduit - including
nav. It's unlikely that shielded wire will radiate much except at the point
where it's been cut.
Regards,
Jay

I have the Whelen stip and tail strobes connected to a single power supply that
is located just behind the baggage bulkhead in my -7A. There are Amp MateNLok
connectors at the wing roots, and the wiring runs in a separate conduit from
the Nav antenna. The systems works perfectly without any electrical pop or whine
(unlike my C182 strobe setup).
Doesn't answer the cable length question, but just a confirmation that the long
strobe wire setup if done by the directions (ground the shield at the power supply,
leave it ungrounded at the strobe end) works great.

OK, I'm planning my shop which will go in the back yard and I'm going to
have to rebuild the fence and put in a new gate. Can anyone tell me the
width between the outside of the main tires, and the distance from the
nosewheel to the mains? I need to know how wide to make the shop doorway
and the gate. I don't know when the kit will be ordered, but the tools are
slowly being acquired and the planning is underway.
