I have been thinking about this myself and I wonder if the connector
between the hardline and the rotor loop might have more loss than the
difference between the hardline and LMR400 ultra flex cable. In other
words, maybe just run LMR400 and not have a connector in line.
I have not done the math, but I think it would depend upon the total length
of the cable. Mine will go from the stackmatch to the bottom of the tower
where it will connect to 7/8” hardline.

6m beam. i have a rotator loop. this is for the longish boom run.
i've got it all figured out so now to implement.
i had no idea that ferrite beads over 1/2" hardline would be so
controversial.

Jim, is this for a fixed antenna or a rotating tower? Or, is it for a
rotator loop?

I'm redoing my 6m feed along the boom with LDF4-50 and would like to
put a
string of type 43 cores along it.
Has anyone here done that and what did you find to use? I'd like to
avoid
including a normal piece of coax if possible.
Thanks
