 Dave, 
 Radiax is a product of the Andrews Corporation. It is essentially a Heliax 
 (RTM) type coax with small holes or openings in the shield to allow some RF 
 to exit. It's primary use is in tunnels, buildings etc. where the need for 
 a distributed RF is required, typically at 450 MHz. It's been around a long 
 time (over 20 years for sure) and now has competitors.

Cheap coax with less than 100% shield coverage will do about the same thing 
for far less cost.  k7gco
