Coax Cable - What's Between Your Antenna and Radio ?

Low Loss type Coax Cable ?

RG58 Coax Cable ?

RG8 Coax Cable?

RG6 Quad-Shield Coax Cable ?

WHY - Cost ? Performance ? Value ?

RG-8/U for SWL is insane overkill. Why no RG-8X/U?


I've used decent quality RG58, RG8X, and a couple of times RG-6(When I
got a huge roll of it free) with no problems.

It's not a real concern at HF frequencies.
