I use DavisRF Buryflex for all of my coax runs going to 12 HF antennas, with
some of the runs exceeding 600 feet. I have been very pleased with its
performance and durability.

I was thinking of getting DavisRF BuryFlex. I've never used it, but it
got good reviews on eham.net.

> I am going to change out antennas on the tower this fall/winter and I
thought it would be a good time to replace all the coax as well to the beam and
dipoles. I have collected a lot of coax over the years but it is old...and a
lot of it has been rolled up for years. I do have a partial spool of RG-8U
from about 20 years ago that has never been off the roll (Saxton Brand - 200
feet). I just don't feel good about putting it on the tower.

advertisements about certain coax, but what is the best for the dollar?

> I have a 60 foot tower with the shack right under the tower since it is on
a city log of 80 by 150 feet. So, I do not need a lot of coax, but I want
something that might be better.
