Hi Mark,
   Micro Coax makes a wide assortment of .141 diameter semirigid cable in
20-25 foot lengths.

   Their UK rep. is:

        Rosenberger Micro Coax
        1 Bacchus House, Calleva Park
        Aldermaston, Reading RG78EN
        Berkshire, England
        
        Phone:  44-1189-810023
        Fax:    44-1189-816180

  The company is on the web at:  www.micro-coax.com

  A side note: The designation RG-402 has been dropped by the US DOD
(where it originated) in favor of the MIL-C-17 specifications.

73 & Happy winding!
  Marv  WC6W
