I posed this question to Tessco a few years ago regarding the use of FSJ
cable outdoors. Evidently there were concerns years ago regarding the

short jumper of RG-213, 9914, or similar at the antenna end to allow you to
rotate the beam(s). I don't think the FSJ is meant to be *THAT* flexible.

Little differnce in FSJ$ and LDF4 other then slight change in loss value and

The reason I ask is there is some fsj4 on ebay. No ldf in any considerable
