Chris,

I'd use LDF for the long run, and FSJ for jumpers.  Also, you'll need a
short jumper of RG-213, 9914, or similar at the antenna end to allow you to
rotate the beam(s).  I don't think the FSJ is meant to be *THAT* flexible.

FWIW - I run 1/2" Heliax to my 2m/70cm stick at the top of my tower, with a
short section of 9914 from the Heliax to the antenna itself.  Inside the
shack, I use FSJ1-50 (I think that's the nomenclature - it's 1/4", RG-58
diameter) as jumpers to the rigs - no more than 3' in length.

I appreciate the tips on where to find the stuff.

Does anyone have an opinion of installing the FSJ product instead of the LDF
product?

Remember, my budget gives me 2 options at the moment.

LDF1 1/4 inch OR the cheap on ebay FSJ4 1/2 inch.

That's the crux, is flexi BAD for a run from the antenna to the shack?
Both connection points are weather proof.

Thanks
Chris
