Unmatched service!!!

New to this company but great quality product and I can’t say enough about customer service. One of my purchases was here on Amazon and the other from Jefatech website. Didn’t see where I could review the product on their site. Wanted to be sure I left one here. Thanks AJ, top shelf customer service!!!

Superb quality

This is probably my highest quality RG8X cable, and I'll probably utilize it for the most important tasks in ham radio.

Good RG8X equivalent (LL240-FLEX), works well. Low loss. datasheet available.

This is a good cable and is actually a LL240-FLEX cable, the seller is an American company and has a datasheet for the cable on their website. The connectors are good and there is heat shrink, but I am not sure if it has the waterproofing adhesive or not. I did couple of sweeps for HF and VH/UHF and the loss seems pretty good for the 50ft cable. SWR was below 1.1 all through. It seem in line with the RG8X spec. I will say this cable is little stiff compared to some of my RG8X cable, additional aluminum shield layer may be the reason. Even though their data sheet give a bending radius of 2", I think that's too aggressive for this cable.Overall its very well made nice coax at good price with an American seller to contact and with a datasheet. I will buy from them again.

Great cable, with ends

Cable works great, with no noticed SWR increase. In addition, the ends are not your traditional push through, with a soldered tip. They use a single metal tip, that must be soldered on under the heat shrink! You pay a little more for it, for sure, but worth it depending on your application!
