>From painful experience, I will now only use coax and rotor cable from Cable
X-Perts that they label "UV-Resistand/Direct Burial." Since the MIL standard
for coax cable was decomissioned a number of years ago, buying coax is a real
crap-shoot.
I have also had great success with thier super-flex antenna wire and their
braided rope. They advertise in all the mags and have their own home page
with an on-line catalog.
