Agreed Bill!
But.... RG 142 or RG-400 is the same size of RG58 but has Teflon
insulation.Easy to bend around the corners. I use it inside of my home-brew
HF amplifiers for the output line for 1500 watts on RTTY. (So does Alpha and
so does Paul, WD7S in all his amplifiers. Check out his web site). If Alpha
used it, then it must be OK! Wink wink! :)
Much better than using adapters!
