Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] Jumper Cable Fabricator
Premade cables are quite expensive compared to homebrew so you have
carefully evaluate your skill level and the value of your time. For
example a 6' RG400 premade PL-259 jumper is over $60. If you shop for
surplus RG400 and purchase quality Amphenol connectors you could
probably build this same jumper for $25.

Why? If diameter, RG400 or RG142 is a far better choice, because the
double silver-coated copper braid provides MUCH superior shielding. Much
of the cost of cable fab is labor; use of the better coax increases cost
some.
DX Eng sells RG400 jumpers. Last summer, I bought three custom jumpers
with different connectors on the ends for my lab setup. I don't recall
where I bought them.
