About 15 yards.
The Mississippi Wireless Informatiion Network. 700.00 MHz-800.00 MHz.
And some of the local frequencies, 45.22-45.52-155.940-45.14-154.995-151.040 .
And where would I order the coax?
Thanks
OK, so 45 feet.
On the 45.xx, 15x.xxx frequencies, you probably won't have much issue with just about any good coax.
At 700-800MHz, coaxial losses become a thing.
LMR-400 would be good, but RG-6 would be cheaper, easier to work with and easier to route. Picking up a pre-terminated 50 foot length of RG-6 isn't going to be hard. A good hardware store or home electronics store will likely have that.
The trick is the connectors. The RG-6 from a hardware/electronics store is going to have F connectors on it. You'll need SMA male on the radio end and whatever to match the antenna.
Waterproofing the connections outside -IS- important if you want this to last through any sort of weather.
LMR400 is going to be more costly, probably have minimal benefit over RG-6, and going to be stiffer, larger and harder to work with. Connecting heavier cable like LMR-400 directly to your scanner will put a lot of strain on the antenna connector, so add in a short jumper for more flexible cable to make the transition.
