Are there any suggestions as to some vendors that make custom coax cables with Times Microwave LMR-240UF with a choice of connectors. Antenna Farm used to be good, I am ready to switch. I am looking for a site where you can select Times Microwave LMR-240UF, and also choice of brands of connectors like male or female BNC or N connectors.

Any other suggestions besides “local radio guy”.
I started this thread since I din’t have a local radio guy and willing to spend the money.

There's a guy on E-Bay that does 240UF with just about any connector. His prices beat everyone else -- and that's even including the E-Bay sales tax. IIRC, he's based in CA.

Was that American Coaxial Industries? I've had really good service and prices from them on other types of cables.
wifi_expert is the seller. CUSTOM CABLE ASSEMBLY | WiFi and RF Expert

Looks like he's out of Valencia. I've always been able to find just about any configuration of coax jumper I need. When there was one he didn't have listed, he created it for me in < 1 hour. I received the jumper like three days later.

Funny, I found his E-Bay store but I don't think I've ever bought from him before. I guess I've always use wifi_expert.

wifi_expert on eBay has made several coax cables for me. I needed exactly 8” of LMR400 to feed through a wall. There isn’t much wiggle room between the outside box with a Polyphaser and a wall plate on the inside wall. I also needed 42’ of LMR400UF with right angle N connector on one end. Price was reasonable and shipping was quick. Made a stupid mistake and rotated the right angle connector about 30 degrees not knowing that broke the solder joint in the connector. I sent the coax back and they put a new connector on.

I ordered from wifi expert and shipping was very fast. I am impressed, I used to use Antenna Farm, things have changed with that company, I ordered LMR-240UF with BNC connectors on both ends from Antenna Farm, I received it the other day with a connector not attached. They said it was "Field installed"...what a crock!!!

I use a seller on eBay, but they have pre-made stuff. They may have what you're looking for though. I'll have to find the seller again and I'll post back when I do.


wifi_expert on eBay ...

Yeah, I think those are the guys. I buy the RFC stuff...
