Harbour Industries RG400 is completely acceptable. I bought 100 ft on Ebay from a Chinese supplier. Measured it on my VNWA and extracted the cable parameters, which were actually slightly better than those of a length of Radial (EU) cable. Also mechanically identical. I have many high-power chokes currently deployed with that cable. It’s $1.39 per ft but takes a few weeks for the free shipping.

Tessco has Times Microwave 655664 for $2.65 per ft if that will make you feel better.
