[TowerTalk] Coax options

[Michael Clarson]

John: The LDF cables are great performers. The AVAs are also good, but use
less copper and are a bit more fragile. RFS has comparable products as
well. There is an overlooked manufacturer -- Trilogy Communications.
http://www.trilogycoax.com/ They offer Aluminium cable, losses comparable
to copper and, there is NO water migration issue with their cable.and they
guaranty that, something CommScope and RFS will not. As a bonus, their
cable is made in USA. I believe you can compare prices at Hutton.

used it commercially for years, was skeptical at first because it wasn't
Andrew. Have had no regrets. One caution: Direct burying is fine, but if
you are pulling through conduit, it won't do many bends. --Mike, WV2ZOW
