The ARRL handbook has a comparision of performance as does the ARRL Anntena Book (see section 24-18). For cost your on your own. Free hardline exists. Low cost coax usually performs like low cost coax. I have used all the "forbidden for repeater" types of coax with the expected results. 9913 works for a while. LMR works a bit longer. most hardlines work until they get H2O in them (normally a long time). So use cheap and struggle then replace it. Sometimes cheap coax is a expedient while you find hardline and the connectors. For what is worth! Many of the curmudgeons on this group have learned the hard way.
