[TowerTalk] LMR-400 or Davis RG-213

[Dick Dievendorff]

I find LMR-400 a bit stiff for a rotator loop.  You might want to use
something like LMR400 Ultra Flex or BuryFlex for the loop.

For my 200 foot run from the radio room to the junction of the rotator loop
I'm considering LMR-600 or Andrew LDF4-50A.

Hi Group,

I will be ready to install my new tower in about 3 weeks once the concrete
has a 
chance to get accustomed to its new home.  My question is which of these two

choices of coax is going to be the best and easiest to work with?  I will
have a 
100' run and it will be used with a Mosley TA-33 so the area I am concerned 
about is the rotor loop and any turns of coax I might want to place on the
boom 
of the antenna.  I currently do not have either coax in hand and therefore I

have to ask the experts.

Tnx and 73
