This is LMR-400 equivalent and is cheaper.

Good folks and quick delivery.

While it is probably not an issue for many, this and the lmr-400 has a
center conductor that is aluminum covered in copper. I just like the 100%
copper for the center conductor.

I don' t think the origional post was about a rotator on a tower, but the
stranded seems to be the perferred coax for that. I did have some of the
origional 9913 up with a rotator for about 10 years before I moved. It
seemed ok, but I like the stranded center conductor and fully filled center
dialectric.

For anything below 30 mhz and low power the rg-8x is ok. I am running some
on 40 and 80 meters but with only 700 watts. This is just about the max for
that coax , especially if sstv or rtty is being used .

A good grade of any of the rg-8 size has low enough loss below 30 mhz and
the weather proffing is more of the issue.
