this is true. all in design. would not be a lot  of coax being sold if
it where not so made. and just think how far 2 way radio communications
would have gotten if coax was not designed for different spreads.

like gene said, more of a selling point.

you must be young, unlike gene and i.

for as for your "<snicker>", you do not get joke i was making and never
did any cb radioing in early days.

so to bring you to and understanding, in days of old, there were basically
2 50 ohm coaxes used, rg58/u and rg8/u. rg8/u had a lower loss than rg58/u
and many cb'ers would use rg8/u because it has less loss than rg58/u.

because of this, cb'ers started calling rg8/u 'low loss' coax.

as for having more rf knowledge in his little finger, that may be. but my
fingers and my brain have held more than just rf knowledge.

'tis a shame you have limited yourself to just rf. as you sound like you
have spent too much time around transmitter stations. ;^P

so, go ahead with your reply, i am thru with 'off subject'.
