[TowerTalk] LMR600 male DIN

[Jim Brown]

John,

I think you and Jim Thompson are talking about two different things. 
He's talking about the center conductor, you're talking about the shield.

FWIW, I find LDF4 very reasonable to handle. I don't use much of it, 
because I've managed to scrounge enough 7/8-in stuff (Andrew and 
Cellwave) for my runs that need it. The "hard line" I find quite 
delicate are the varieties designed for use in CATV systems. I've got 
some and I'm using it on two monobanders, but it requires VERY careful 
handling. What I have is 1/2-in, 75 ohms, Cu-coated Al center, Al 
shield, so it's very easy to kink.

73, Jim K9YC
