Tower Talkians,

Anyone have a good source for quality RG-11?

::I have mil-spec RG11/U on spools.  How much do you need?

I need to install a moderately long run for cable tv.

::Frankly, I don't even recommend RG11/U for this!  For cable TV, you should
use RG216/U as a minimum (double shielded RG11/U), but frankly RG6 quad
shielded, same as the cable TV companies use, is a better choice and much
cheaper -- and it accepts the correct connectors.  There really is a
difference with the extra shielding -- you can see it in much reduced
ghosting on signals, especially in metropolitan areas where multipath is
abundant.  -WB2WIK/6

Thanks,

Les W2LK
