Pete,
 RG-174 is rated @ 170 Watts @ 10 MHz, 72 Watts @ 50 MHz.  Loss is 3.8
dB/100Ft at
10 MHz  and 6.5 dB/100Ft at 50 MHz.   Capacity is 30.8 pF/ Ft.

Bob, W5AH

I need some small-diameter coax for rewiring the input side RF connections
in my SB-220.  Is RG-174 adequate for the power levels encountered (125w
max, <50% duty cycle) or would I be better off to go with a teflon variant.

73, Pete N4ZR
