Hello, John - we can offer a bit of insight on the two excellent cables.
They are of similar construction as you probably know, and would both
last a nominal 10 years. The 9913F has more flexibility, if that is
important to you, with a 19 strand center conductor. The 400UF has 7
strands. The loss characteristics differ in that the 9913F is quite
similar to regular 9913 which is quite similar to LMR400. Almost too
close to call, so flexibility is the major factor there. The LMR400UF is
rated at 15% more loss, and is at least that, so if loss is really
important, it comes in second. Price differs quite a bit - we currently
sell the 9913F at $0.70/ft and the LMR400UF at $0.80/ft in 100 ft to
499ft lengths, custom cut.
Both are top quality products from highly respected manufacturers.
Will be happy to supply greater detail on loss, etc if required.
