Very Impressive!!
I received close to 10 replies to my question concerning LMR-400 and 9913
coax. The consensus was water ingress problems with 9913 that are not
encountered with LMR-400. These responses has convinced me to change my
mind, even about 9913EF, and go with an LMR 'type' coax.
I greatly appreciate everyone taking their time to share their experiences
with me!

Subject: [TowerTalk] Coax type selection
Could someone please explain to me why LMR-400 seems to be preferred over
Belden 9913 for coax feed line? They have about the same attenuation/100' at
28 MHz, 9913 has a non-contaminating jacket and 9913 cost a little less than
LMR-400.
Comparing the specs of both, leads one to believe they are just about
equivalent, however, I must be missing something?
Thanks.
