What is the implication? Is LMR series cable not quality cable? Seems to be a good choice to me for 430 MHz. 73, de Nate >> -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds.

Just for clarification about LMR900: There absolutely is a coaxial cable called LMR900 made by Times Microwave and sold through their distributors. It is a low loss and quality cable with performance

There is a school of thought out there that many subscribe to, myself included, that will not use LMR cables for long runs on a repeater, due to the noise that tends to be generated. Just as an aside

I would say unusual, but not extremely unusual. In fact there is a lot of 1-5/8" Heliax out there. I know, I'm nit-picking :) -Steve K8LX _______________________________________________ _____________

I've never seen it to be a problem. Is this something they are afraid of, or something they have experienced and documented. If some one did have a problem, was it water getting in the coax. I've had

My entire system is LMR-600 with the exception of some Davis BuryFlex(TM) pigtails, and drops to the 80 meter slopers. I use RG-8X to the 40 meter half wave slopers. I opted for the 8X due to the sma

I've got long runs to deal with - 500' to the base of one tower, 400' to another, etc., and good stock on 1-5/8" Heliax and 1-5/8" Cell Reach, so you can guess what became irresistible. Plus I sold t

In my case, pretty well documented. UHF Community Repeater, and a VHF public safety repeater. After replacing everything else, replace the LMR and the recieve issues go away - no more noise introduce

I'd be inclined to think the problem lies with the connections rather than the cable. There really aren't enough examples to be anything other than anecdotal. I never had problems with it. What I did

Your mileage may vary. I merely said that there was a school of thought about it. In the commercial world there are even tower owners that ban LMR from their sites. Connectors? Could be of course, bu

UF is probably not the ideal cable for most outdoor uses. The jacket on all of the UF (Ultraflex) Times cables does not withstand UV as well as the non-UF cables. Any sun-exposed use is likely a trad

This is theoretically possible if the connectors are installed in such a way as to separate the shields. If the connectors are installed UNDER the inner shield, LMR cables should be no different than

Interesting. Let's say I'm installing an Amphenol PL-259 on something like LMR400 or Commscope 3227 (similar shield construction). The connector is a tight screw-on fit to the jacket, the braid and f

Jim, if the braid and foil were in poor contact, they would constitute a very low impedance transmission line with the foil acting as center conductor and braid as outer conductor. After a very short
