I can confirm the validity, I think I came across the reason once but forgot 
since then. I just got the 213 they said use, figuring they know what works 
best on their antennas.  73,

 Over the years I have heard stories of unexplained failures with Mosley 
antennas which were equally unexplained as having to do with the selection of 
certain coax cables. One recent incident was with a local here that had trouble 
getting a PRO 67 to ‘cooperate’ only with the use of RG 213 cable. Recalling 
this story, I have been asked to assist with the install of a Mosley TA-53, 5 
band beam on a 14ft boom.  NOTHING in the manual (which is dated) suggests this 
but an on-line review of the TA-63 and a peek at a manual found on-line also 
seem to suggest that the ‘recommended coax is RG213”.  Any comments on the 
validity and reason for the use of JUST RG-213 and not some other 50/52 ohm 
cable?  Thanks....  - Mike
