Default coax for 900mhz?

1/2" Superflex (FS4J-50B) is pretty low loss at 900 MHz, but it ain't
exactly supple. How long is the coax run? RG-142 might be OK for
semi-short runs and is fairly flexible (about the same size as RG-58)...

what coax is good to 900mhz? i am looking for something as thin and
supple as i can find. i tried a hunk of coax off of an old cb antenna
(wishful thinking) with no luck. should this work? or is hf coax no
good at 900 mhz? i built a ten element yagi off a plan i found on the
net. it should be a rocket ship but its not as good as a wide band
rubber ducky that i have. i am trying to receive a 900mhz wireless
microphone from a distance of about 200 yards. any ideas?
