Default coax for 900mhz?

Huh? All my charts list loss per one hundred feet...however, unless he
needs every last bit of signal, 15 feet of RG-58 would be OK...see:

Ji thanks guys for your input! ok, forget about thin and supple. i need
Ji 50 ohm impedance coax at 900mhz into a uniden scanner(bnc connector)
Ji with a 15 foot run. what coax of any size is commonly available that
Ji would be suitable?

Listen, these nice guys are all BS'ing you. Remember that cable is
rated in dB/1,000ft, so that with only 15 of cable -- ANY -- will be
about the same. You will probably have more loss in the connectors!
