If someone goes to a reputable CATV supplies distributor they will match you up with the correct cable, connectors and tools the first time around.
Do not try to buy piecemeal and expect things to match unless you have plenty of experience. Ive been using CATV cable from RG-59 (that dates me) to 1" Trilogy and learned the ropes decades ago. Quad shielded is the best as long as the feedlines are decoupled with ferrite beads and you follow whatever the antennas grounding instructions are. Yes, flooded is about mandatory for on or in the ground use and it is sold as "direct burial" cable and comes with a couple of shielding configurations. The last place on the planet Id spend money is DX Engineering unless you just enjoy spending a premium for no value added. Its like paying full list price for your radio or car and then add a buyers premium on top. Carl KM1H _______________________________________________ UR RST IS ... ... ..9 QSB QSB - hw? BK
