 LMR 400 DB price:  I got some from DAVIS RF Co. 1-800-DAVIS RF. Their price 
on this DB has been 59 cents per foot for as long as I've looked !!   The 
standard (non-DB) LMR 400 has been .53/ft!   they're right when they say "the 
price leader in Heliax and LMR".  Guy their told me they do 80% commercial 
and so much Heliax and LMR they get super costs and still let hams have it 
for same price as commercials.  Friendly folks too.  D. Brooks

 Times Cable has a direct burrial version of there LMR-400 (a low loss, 100%
 shield RG8 sized coax) called LMR-400DB. It has sealing goop inside the 
sheath
 to keep water out. Texas Towers (and others I'm sure) carry it. TT gets $.74 
a
 foot.
