And then there is the difference in price.  If K1CRA, who made the
offer of 500 ft of RG8X for $80, comes through .... and gives us a
similar price on silver PL-259's and adaptors, I'd think RG8X would be
a good way to go.
I can check with him and see what RG-213 would cost, but 500 ft of
that is considerably heavier --- about 20 lbs for RG8X vs about 50 lbs
for RG213!
