[TowerTalk] LMR-400 vs. CommScope vs. Belden

[K8RI on TowerTalk]

Compromises, compromises...Go with cheap coax and you save money but have to 
reduce the power. Well, maybe you could use it in the UHF driver circuits.

I haven't spent a lot of time on the sites, but I didn't find any prices.  I 
wish they'd put those up front instead of two or three layers down.

I just found a price on LMR 600 for about $1.29 to $1.39 a foot.

Yeah, I'd have to go out in the garage and turn the secondary amp down a
bit.

What??? Only 10.4 kW???

Dang! That rules out the CommScope cable for me, except for my mobile
installation I guess...

Check out CommScope WBC 600 and Andrew CNT-600. The Andrew is a direct
substitute, the CommScope is a bit different. Watch the power
rating--CommScope is only 10.4 kW while the others are 40 kW!--Mike, WV2ZOW
