A search on Google turns up a number of places selling it in 100 and 200
ft minimums.
It appears to be pretty expensive for what is apparently the equivalent
of the old standard coax with a solid PE dielectric, bare copper
braid/shield, and 5" bending radius.  I presume there are so few places
selling it is there is little demand when it has to compete with cables
like Davis BuryFlex (TM)
