Hi all,

Looking for a good resource(s) for UT-141 and UT-085 semi-rigid hardline.
Also for male connectors, the solder on nut and solder on pin type for both
sizes.  I spent a good part of the weekend learning and making some of my
first UT cables, not to bad!  Wonder why I did not do it before!

I am also looking for specific attenuation figures.  I have looked around
and found some general numbers, but I have yet to come across a manufacturer
site stating the chracteristics.

To be specific, I am looking for attenuation figures for 5.7 and 10 ghz on
both cable types.

I am aware of what Steve at DEMI has to offer, but I think I bought his last
batch of .085 connectors.  So any other info helpful.  The RF connection
also has some cable stuff too, but they call it RG-402 and RG-405.  I think
thats the same stuff.

If you have some around you want to part with, let me know too!

I just got done wiring a 5.7 ghz 20 watt amp for my microwave tower, should
be ready for the Jan Contest.  Now on to the next project.

Also, just took my 10 ghz box down off the same tower to check it out to see
how it has been fairing for the last 6 months.  Well there is water inside
the waterproof box.  Go figure....now to track that down....it never seems
to end :)
