[HCARC] Question for Mr Bill on LMR-400

[Gary and Arlene Johnson]

Bill,

As I look around the internet and on Ebay I find there are about 4-5 makers of LMR-400 type coax.  "Times" seems the most expensive, however they don't list the best specs.  Is there really a difference between the manufacturers or is one just about as good as another??  And for the money and probably having to make coax runs of 150 feet or so is it worth the money at all??  I guess I can't see making all the fuss about maxing out antennas and getting a good radio, etc and then using less than the best coax, assuming the cost difference isn't really nuts.
