2007年8月13日 · RG-6 has much less loss than RG-58, and less loss than even RG-8. I would never use RG-58 for a base scanner installation unless the total run was less than ten feet or so.

2006年1月10日 · Studgeman, He was referencing RG-8X (mini foam). This is a smaller version of RG-8, but still has a little bit less loss than rg-58. dsmall, If you are doing a mobile install, your better bet would be the mini foam, but at these lengths (maybe 10-15') it will certainly not make a very noticeable difference.

2007年12月27日 · I think you are a little confused with the terminology. RG-58 is a cable - not a connector. The UG designators are for reducer adapters so PL-259 connectors can be used on various size cables - see below: Reducer Cable Type UG-174/U RG-174,316 UG-175/U RG-58,55,141,142 UG-176/U RG-59,8x,62,71,LMR-240 The reducer screws into the back end of the PL-259 connector to reduce the cable opening on ...

2011年7月19日 · Based on this (Welcome to Times Microwave | Coaxial Cable - Attenuation & Power Handling Calculator) RG-58 will give you 11.3 dB of loss over your 78 feet (numbers based on a 900 MHz signal, good round # for 800 MHz band receiption) while RG-8X will give you 9.5 dB of loss (went from really bad to just pretty bad). RG-8X is designed for HF use at fairly low power and is NOT the same as RG-8 ...

2010年3月28日 · Hi, I have an RFI brand antenna that says to use only RG58C/U, however the local electronics store only sells RG58/U. What is the difference between the two types, if any, and will I suffer any considerable performance loss in using RG58/U? It …

2021年2月21日 · What is the difference between RG-58 VS GR-58u? I found a mount that have a RG58u codex cable Could i used a BNC with it?

2010年10月10日 · RG-58 is good for what it was designed for (although there are many that are better), cheap, small diameter, somewhat flexible, low-power coax for HF where runs are short. Beyond that, the loss will kill your signal.

2023年12月31日 · RG-174 will have more loss than RG-8 or RG-58. That can reduce the amount of signal that gets from the antenna to your radio. But 10 feet isn't a lot. Not sure what frequencies you are using, but here's some numbers: 10 feet of RG-8 on 154MHz will result in 5% of the signal lost in the cable.

2020年6月24日 · I erected my mast and new antenna, but I am having a heck of a time trying to ground the RG-58 coax with conntecters to the antenna block. The antenna came with RG58-au coax and I had to shorten the length. I purchased a compression conntector kit but have had no luck getting the f connectors...

2012年6月1日 · RG-58/U has a solid core and RG-58 A/U has a stranded core. BNC connectors should never be installed on RG-58 A/U as a single strand of wire from that centre conductor will cause a change of impedance or dead short in your coax resulting in …
