Re: [amsat-bb] Seeking Coax choice

["John Stephensen, KD6OZH" <kd6ozh@xxxxxxx>]

Use a cable with a stranded center conductor for the portion that will bend
as the antenna is rotated. If you have a long run then transition to a cable
with a solid center conductor for the rest of the run. Times Microwave
LMR-400 and LMR-600 are the best for long runs. LMR-400-UltraFlex can be
used around the rotator.
