[TowerTalk] LMR-400 or Davis RG-213

Hello-
    I am sure everyone is well aware, but let me say this regarding the direct 
burial cables- The good ones, such as LMR400DB, have a sealant material that 
will eventually migrate into the dielectric to a degree, and start affecting the 
cable characteristics. The losses, mostly a concern at VHF, can increase.
                                                    Thanks, WA5THJ

Kevin,

I use Davis RF Bury-Flex on everything here, including 12 runs of cable lengths 
from 150 to 650 feet. It is used for all the rotor loops also. Works great -- 
never any problem with it.

Kent - K4MK
