spec... I'll go give them a look

Davis cable is quite good. Remember that loss in coax is all resistance below about 300 MHz unless the coax has been damaged by water penetration. The contribution of dielectric to loss is simply to allow a larger diameter center conductor for a given Zo. I'm using their RG11 to feed high dipoles for 80 and 40, and their BuryFlex for antenna wiring and switching within my shack. And I find them very good to deal with. My measurements of their RG11 find it quite similar to Belden 8213, which is very good stuff.
