Looking to replace the coax on a Wilson 5K. What is the BEST coax I can get? Looking at Belden 9913F7, but to be honest, they all are starting to "run together". Running a 2970N2 in 2010 Chevy truck.
mobile =
lmr-195 flex =rg58
lmr-240 flex =rg 8x [mini 8]
just get whatever meets or exceeds your wattage. and use the flexable type
much simpler on mobile setups.you,ll see a F after the coax type.imho the 195 should
do fine.
The center electrode insulator with LMR is a softer foam (-). LMR > Velocity Factor (++).
Softer foam insulator and sharp bends is a no-no. I'm thinking anything less than 2" radius bend is detrimental on the smaller diameter LMR. May be greater R requirement on the larger 0.4x "coax.
Your 2970N2 deserves LMR190 or 240; watch the bends.
Belden 9913F7 10AWG center electrode; you think that N2 needs that
Please advise me to what is a good replacement mic for my SR-497HPC... Answer: 497 is "wired like Cobra", so many choices available. That radio does not need a power mic, so purchase a stock "coffin style" mic with a decent cord, like the ones that Astatic uses. The Superstar DM-507 is my go-to. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3050474478...adANq91JSiEEnz8EGqPJRBloTgEyaVsBoCtoMQAvD_BwE $12.99 + .99 cent shipping.
