[Fourlanders] RG-400

[Ron Rogers]

No, I agree Jim. It's more than "simply RG-58"... but my comment about "is
basically double shielded RG-58"  was pointed toward parameters like
velocity factor, power handling, and loss at frequency which ARE almost
identical to RG-58 poly interior coax.

 

Yes, I've used RG-400 many times, mainly in repeater service for jumpers
between duplexers, filters, etc. where critical shielding is required. And,
I've got about 40 feet of it myself on the shelf somewhere.

It's a little more than that Ron.  Yes, it is double shielded and the same
size as RG58 but that double shielding is silver plated copper.  The
dielectric and outer jacket are Teflon.  It is pretty deluxe stuff.
Something you might find in a rocket.  Wink!  I wouldn't mind having some.
What is the deal Kim?  How much does he want for it?

I don't have any need for any of it.

Guys and gals,

 

I have a ham over here with a reel of at least 500-ft. of RG-400.  Anybody
need any?
