What do you think of this stuff ? It sells for about one third of 7/8 Heliax and very close in loss.

Thanks for the info and advice John.   There is a lot to consider.......

I would not use LMR600 for the runs to the tower.  Even the small LDF4 has
less loss, it is tougher, UHF, N and DIN connectors are readably available
and if purchased surplus it is cheaper than LMR600.  If you care about coax
loss I would look at larger Heliax.

I am looking at this DIN connector for LMR600.
What do you think of this connector ?  Price is not bad.
Crimp style OK, or would I be better off with clamp style ?
I will be making multiple runs a little over 300 feet each out to the tower.
Bear with me guys, I haven't ventured into the N or DIN connector use
before.
