[TowerTalk] Cablewave hardline

I'd like to piggyback on this question. I also have been searching for some
time to no avail for this Cablewave Systems heliax cable:

This is on a taped-on label -
	C371-21-27 1
	16733 8L
	Serial # 0029 (I also have serial 0032)

The heliax itself has continuous printing, hard to read because of
undulations in the outside conductor, but it looks like:
	16733-8L.1003-00 4-100

The outside conductor is one inch in diameter. I have two of these cables
from military surplus, both are 167 feet in length, and have Type-N
connectors with air fittings on the connectors, so I know it isn't foam
filled.

I would like to know another manufactures equivalent part, or the coax
specs, so I can cut the coax to a shorter length and install a 7/16 DIN
connector on one end, and a 1 5/8" EIA on the other.

Maybe someone could guess the specs from the numbers above, else I'm going
to have to take apart one of the beautifully done N-connector ends to get
the dimensions...

Thanks anyone,
-Doug Ronald

Does any towertalker have data on this hardline:
jacket reads "Cablewave Systems 16733-810918-001 FLC 12-50 Flexwell".
There's another string of digits that was not legible. OD is 5/8" and it
looks similar to LDF4-50A. Nil on Google search.

Tnx.

Pres, N6SS
