Flexible low loss coax

Post by Alan Pilot »

Anybody recommend a flexible low loss coax.
Using rg213 but it is lifting my tuner of the shelf so i would like to make some patch leads only short but flexible enough to let me sort my shelf out.
I did think of heating the rg213 and putting a bend in it but i think it will damage it.

RF-5 will work, even quality rg-58

For short patch leads on HF, I use RG-8 mini or M&P Ultraflex 7. I tend to use M&P Ultraflex 10 for VHF & above. Very flexible.
