Coax recomendations
At the bottom of this page the ** footnote
1. http://www.davisrf.com/ham1/coax.htm "note that Bury-Flex has a 20+ year abrasive resistant jacket of PE" -- Charlie "Dave Holford" wrote in message ... Charlie wrote: Wes Stewart said: I find it curious that Andrew cable is seen so often at these events and yet I've -never- even seen a piece of Davis cable, dispite the claims that miles of it are in commercial use. It might be that the BuryFlex is still in use and has not been removed from service as the Heliax you cite has been. After all Davis BuryFlex 9914 does have a warranted - 20 year service life - Is there any other coax with such a warranty? --- Charlie I don't seem to be able to find any mention of a warranty on their site - can you point it out for me?

So now that has been cleared up..the question remains..
Is there any other coax available for amateur use that has a 20 years service life warranty? -- Charlie "Dave Holford" wrote in message ... Ah yes -"warranted" - my apology!

From what other posters are measuring, the cable has a close to zero service life. Roy can certainly measure things properly and if he says the piece he had was bad then I believe him. I believe Greg too. There are just too many bad measurements showing up, done by experienced and competent people, for it to be coincidence. The cable is bad out of the box in at least some instances. There is no warranty covering that AFAICS. vy 73 Andy, M1EBV |
