Tim,

Got any responses on this yet ?
I am thinking of trying some 7/8" hard line from Davis RF.
It is their 7/8" RFS Cellflex.  The connectors aren't too expensive, 
about $13.00.
Here's is their page for info.
http://www.davisrf.com/heliax.php

Anyone have any experience with this stuff ?
I understand it is used a lot on cell towers.

73,
Bob
