Would Andrew FSJ1-50A Superflex be good to use for 432 on a rover?
There's a new 20' patch cable with N-males advertised on fleaBay for
$30/delivered.
---------------------------

According to Andrew Corp's website, FSJ1-50's 450 MHz specs are:
Attenuation: 3.91 dB / 100 ft
Power Handling: 567 watts

Calculating against a 20' run, you get:
Attenuation: .782 dB

You can then compare this figure against any alternative coax (http://www.timesmicrowave.com/cgi-bin/calculate.pl) to decide if is is good to use in your particular case.
