Does anybody know anything about RG-304 ? Its aprx .271 OD.... and has teflon + silver braids /center conductor. Im having a helluva time trying to find out what gauge the center conductor is. Does a

That would be fine above about 10 MHz, but steel coated with anything greatly increases conductor resistance below a few MHz as compared with solid copper. You can see this in Belden's published data

Hmmm... I'm not sure where I got the idea it was stranded with a steel core.?? It still should work fine through HF, but the bending radius might be limited compared to RG-400, which is what I use. I

What's the difference between using LMR-400, or BuryFlex with six 12" dia Loops equally spaced, compared to bundling the same size loops into a single bunch or for that matter, grouping any coax toge

Right. but other than that (and looking neater), what about the choke's characteristics? Would it narrow the range of high impedance? Lower, raise, or leave the maximum impedance unaffected? In gener

Right. Depending on choke config, it can narrow the range of the choke, Not if the core material is #31 or #43. to the point where it covers 80m with high 5-6 k RS... but not 40m. Lousy on 40m, like

Right. Not if the core material is #31 or #43. This is nonsense. This is also nonsense. Chokes wound for the HF bands using #31 and #43 material have VERY low circuit Q, typically on the order of 0.4
