looking for coax


:?:

to be honest..why would you want RG-213..
you can find this all over the place..
here is one example
http://www.scanlancables.com/Coaxial Cables/Military Coaxial Cables.htm

if this is for a home install...i would think it better to go with at least LMR-400 (or more depending on the frequencys being used and how long a run you are using this for..

i know more then a few people who like the LMR-400

however since i use UHF a lot i perfer hardline feedline-coax
like my Andrew Heliax LDF5-50A and LDF7-50A..

although this is far superior...for many aplicaions it is over kill to a extreme....
this hardline is not easy to work with either...

if you are not using for VHF or higher frequency's
then stay with the LMR-400 and if you are using under 150 foot run then i suppose RG-213 is ok..

but got to tell you i am not at all too keen on it...
two of my RG-213 lines went bad at the connectors after only a few months (ok so perhaps this past winter was worse then the norm)..

any other questions
just ask

Bob
