Actually RG58, RG223 and LMR195 have virtually the same dielectric 
diameter as UT141, right at 0.110" The main difference is the dielectric 
material and its loss and lower dielectric constant that changes the 
center conductor diameter. RG 223 double shielded is a lot better 
shielded than single braid RG-58 but probably leaks more than solid 
shield UT-141. Flexible imitations may be as leaky as RG-58 if they have 
only a single braided shield. But then there is the stuff Radio Shack 
used to sell with 10% less copper in the braid that really leaked bad.
