All aircraft radios use 50 ohm cable. Be sure to use RG58 FOAM. The foam coax
has about 1/4 the loss of the regular RG58. You can buy it at any two-way
communications shop or in the internet. The Radio Shack stuff may cost 20%
less, but it is almost as bad as hooking up the antenna using the

All aircraft radios use 50 ohm cable. Be sure to use RG58 FOAM. The
The thing you want to avoid with coax is leakage along the length of the
cable. The longer the cable, better the shielding must be. On VHF and UHF the
loss
can be very high. When going from a transceiver across the back yard and up a
tower, Hard-line is required costing dollars per foot. With t
ussing with
it.
I think the only "critical" thing is to get 50 ohm
instead of 75 ohm cable.
