Re: [Repeater-Builder] LMR coax

[Maxwell Pratt]

I have used both LMR & the small hard line I dont think much of ether 
one might be alright on short
run but line loss is a problem with both . Spend money and get larger hard 
line will be cost less in long run
FIX RIGHT FIRST TIME , and you won't have to go back and do over .

Since I see a topic on Coax I got this E-Mail from a Ham Friend 

 Coax AF400, just like LMR400 for $0.35/ft. from
http://www.antennasystems.com shipped to my door for only $34.97 next day.

Has anyone heard of this Coax before 

Happy Repeater Building 

Thanks Don KA9QJG

I have had good luck, except the LMR400 / similar to 9913 is prone to center conductor (copper clad solid aluminum) breaking if it gets too much flexing.  ssbOn 4/2/06,

Tim,
The only issue I have had is that if you get any moisture between the braid
and foil shield..  you will soon have the "million diode marching band"
serenading your receiver in a duplex environment.  It happened to a guy just
South of here when a hunk was used in a duplexer harness a while back.
Replaced the jumper and all was well again...

Also the braid is aluminum, so it is pretty fragile to any twisting etc
where it attaches to a connector.  Also makes it somewhat difficult to
solder to.  Use the crimp-on style connectors from www.Fab-Corp.com and
provide some kind of stress relief to the connector.  Try not to nick the
center conductor when you strip it back as it is copper-clad aluminum.

I a simplex environment...  I love it!

Recently there were some negative comments about the LMR coax.  I have not
used it before but was curious what problems others may have encountered
while using it.
