I have a 250 ft. (+/-) cable run to a TR-44 rotator.  The spec says 1 Ohm 
max cable resistance for "proper operation".  19/29 stranding 16 gauge 
satisfies this requirement at 250 ft.  Can anyone recommend a good (i.e. 
cheap) source?  The best price I've been able to find so far is TX Towers 
with 2-#12, 6-#16 at $0.89/ ft.  Mouser has the exact Belden cable (8621) 
but it's over $1.50/ ft. effectively!  Only need 7-wire cable.  Thanks.
