Hi all,
I am on my antennas section of the build now, and could not understand what is the differences between RG400 and RG142. Seems like everyone is talking about RG400, and from Aircraft Spruce, RG400 has multistrand core while the RG142 has a solid core, but what does that mean in terms of usability and installation?
Can I use RG142 for all my coax need? I am able to source RG142 easier here in Hong Kong and if I can get away with that, I then don't have to wait too long to ship the RG400 from AS.
Many thanks!
Hank
