RG58 Coaxial Cable 49.2ft, CB Coax Cable, UHF PL259 Male to Male Coaxial 50 Ohm Coax Low Loss for HF VHF CB Radio, Ham Radio, SWR Meter, Scanner, Antenna Analyzer

Arrived on time, nicely package, worked perfectly out of its ziplock bag. This cable isn't too stiff and the fittings are well finished. For a well-priced vhf 50 ohm cable this is a good choice. (Installed on a VHF/AIS antenna from a splitter)

I'm new to the radio hobby and I needed some coax quick and cheap. Although I read in many forums that you need the most expensive coax you can find I went against that and bought this. Had to go with what the budget allowed at the moment. Anyways, I highly recommend this coax if you just want something that works and gets the job done. I have this paired up with a home made dipole antenna and the results couldn't be any better. I have low 1:1 and no higher than 1:3 swr all accross the band and I'm able to talk to stations in Europe, all over the North America and beyond. It seems to be made of good quality materials and well made.I will buy this coax again.

On April 30, 2021 I passed the Amateur Radio Technician examination and received my call sign from the FCC at the Technician class.My first radio purchases were an AT-D878UVII Pro and BTech UV-5x3. These handheld units don't come with the best antenna for either an apartment or automobile. I chose the Nagoya UT-72 Super Loading Coil 19-Inch Magnetic Mount antenna to increase my gain and thus reach in receiving and transmitting.The antenna come with a 17 foot coax and a SMA Female adapter. While 17 feet is enough for a mobile application (e.g. car, truck, bus, etc.) I'm using mine at home because I sold my automobile.The 17 feet wasn't long enough to reach either of my large metal masses (refrigerator or air conditioner). I purchased this 50 ohm 50 feet long extension coax for the antenna and my two handheld radios.One concern: While this concern doesn't directly relate to this extension coax, it does relate to the overall usage of the item. The SMA Female adapter uses a thin wire to connect the 50 foot extension coax to the radio. I'm worried it won't hold up over time with the weight of 50 ohm coax (50 foot extension) cable. Maybe I'm wrong, but the coax keeps pulling it down and the wire looks very fragile.Overall I have no problem highly recommending 50 foot extension cable to any HAM radio operator for use with handheld, mobile, or base stations.

This coax is a bit stiff but seems to be well constructed. I will be using this for my outside 2M antenna. I think it will work well. I would buy it again.

This coax is great for hf work, cheap and it gets the job done!

YesIt was cheaper

As described

I bought several of these for the truck and the House. Lower quality, but they work well.
