I've used a LOT of Commscope 3227 and their PTFE plenum equivalent. It's loss specs are the same as LMR400, solid #10 copper center, pretty dense tinned copper braid over Al foil. Both solder quite well. The PTFE plenum coax is smaller diameter, so I build it up with heat shrink before mounting the 83-1SP connectors. 73, Jim K9YC _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/amps |
