A particular danger with coax is moisture creeping in at the ends. This causes huge losses. But if it hasn't been used outside it is probably ok. > The question I have is : I have Belden 8259 and Xcom recommends Belden > 8219. Standard recommendation is always for high quality cable. The truth is that the lenght needed for your airplane is so small that the losses are not meaning anything. Use the cable with the lowest weight. I used RG58 A/U for my europa and it works perfect.
