I must echo Joes sentiments , I have been using lmr400-uf for a number
of years now , both at home and on 5200 ft mountain tops and it works
just fine , though as stated , you need to purchase connectors ( bnc, N
) that are specifically made for the 9913 variants as the center
conductor is big enough that the standard rg8 style won't work without
filing down the center conductor :^P

Try http://www.nemal.com  , they have a nice selection of connectors for
9913 and other items that may be of amateur interest , I have had great
luck with them over the years , and you can actually talk to a real live
person too :^)
