I've personally had good results with Belden 9913F7 cable outdoors in the west (wet) coast of Canada for non GPS RF applications (two runs have been in service for over 15 years.) I seem to recall in the early 1990's using a different style of what I believe was Belden "9913" cable that

Hi A lot depends on just *what* the error actually is that’s popping up on the Rb. In some cases you have a VCXO that locks up to the Rb signal . The VCXO ages “far enough” to cause problems. Adjusting it can help in this case. You need to do some digging to see if your specific make / model
