[SixClub] Recommended Coax?

[KB0NLY]

I second that conclusion....

Condensation might cause a drip or to, but I haven't seen a condensation 
problem on this coax either.  Unless you putting on the connectors and 
sealing it up on a day with 100% humidity you shouldn't trap that much 
moisture in the coax to have it condense later on.

I have heard of guys using an air compressor with an air dryer inline to get 
the driest air possible and blowing that through a length of 9913 until it 
was filled with dry air and then quickly installing the connectors while 
also working in a low humidity environment...  That's a bit extreme 
obviously but just pointing to what some have done.

73,

Scott
