Looking for some 9913-flex or Lmr-400 ultra-flex. About 700 to 1000 ft.


I won't let 9913 near my tower<:-))
Lightening blw off the water proofing up on top and I had water running out of the rig less than 15 minutes later.


I purchased two 1000 foot spools of LMR 400 and like it. It's easy to work with and will make tighter bends safely than 9913.I think I have about 1500 to 1600 feet in use at present.

I purchased mine from Texas Towers.
I think it's bury flex that some of the guys have been saying is real good coax. Price wise I think it's less than LMR 400 which is less than 9913.
