Firstly, let me thank all those who replied to my original post. Most helpful.
In answer to the above question, I will be using the phase comparator only. With
either output 2 or 3, not the XOR only output, since the divided LO signal will
not be a 50% duty cycle.

Length matters in two ways here:
- attenuation. In this case, shorter the coax the better
- transmission line transformer: here the relationship is non-monotonic.
For instance, going from 3/8 to 1/2 wave in coax electrical length will
will result in "less" impedance tranformation from input to output even
though the coax is longer.
