##  You are correct.  Per Joe Lanoue  at Times Microwave,  LMR-900-UF  was actually
 designed,and fabricated, and tested.   It worked very well indeed.    There was NO demand for
it however, so they stopped producing it.   So it actually did exist... but production either ceased,
or the stuff never was put into production.   Too bad.    I think it would have been a winner.  The large diam,
rigid coax is  a real pig to install at the best of times.    This LMR-1200DB  I have is like trying to bend 
an aluminum  baseball bat.   

##  Now for you folks who want some really serious QRO  coax, that is also flexible and low loss, Times
makes this  stuff called     SFT-600.   $22.00 per ft.   Yikes ! 

##  it's like LMR-600 on steroids, same size... and they even make 7-16 male /female dins for it.  You just
have to win the power ball.
