User questions & answers

Question:	Can this cable be installed underground, that is, buried
Answer:	Cable is approx. 3/16" diameter. The connectors at each end are approx. 1/2"
Question:	Do you have coax. cable with one end with removable pl259 conn
Answer:	Hello Joshua, Thank you for your email. We are very pleased to hear that you are interested in our Black Seed oil! To answer your question(s), our Premium Cold-Pressed Black Cumin Seed oil is pressed from Nigella Sativa seeds that are grown in Turkey. This Black Seed oil generally has a strong taste and the highest level of Thymoquinone on the market (minimum 0.95% up to 2.5% TQ). Thymoquinone(TQ) is the naturally occurring active ingredient found only in Black Cumin Seed oil and has been studied for most of the oil's health benefits. We do not add nor take away anything from the oil. We only cold press the black seeds here in the U.S. once they arrive and put the oil in bottles and softgels. The Egyptian Black seeds (also 100% black cumin seed oil) are sourced and grown in Egypt instead of Turkey. These seeds tend to have a lower TQ content which is why our “Premium Black Seed oil” is more preferred by individuals and health care practitioners for therapeutic purposes. Egyptian Black Cumin Seed oil is milder in taste and has about 1/3 less amount of Thymoquinone (minimum of 0.60 TQ). Both oil types have around 55% Omega 6 and 23% Omega 9% though. Some people prefer the more "mild tasting" Egyptian black seed oil when taking it orally daily because sometimes we do get very high levels of TQ of the Premium, as each lot/batch will always vary in taste and color seeing it is 100% pure and natural. When the levels of TQ are higher, at times it tends to be too strong of a taste for some to take orally daily, so they prefer to stick with our more mild tasting Egyptian and never have to worry about it being too strong for them to take daily. For digestive and general overall health, either oil would be good, but for issues such as immune system support or inflammatory response, the Premium Black Seed oil that has a higher TQ content would be suggested. Our suggested dosage amount is just our general suggested use, not saying that it is the exact amount everyone should use always. Some people use more and less depending upon their condition, age, and/or the advice of a licensed health care physician. We are currently unaware of side effects but and for adults we suggest only taking our Black Seed with food and use anywhere between ½ teaspoon to 1 teaspoon twice a day. We also suggest you start with a half a teaspoon per day and gradually build up to the two teaspoons over a period of 1-2 weeks to allow the body to get used of the oil. You can continue with the two teaspoons for as long as you need it or many people will reduce the dosage amount after two to three months to a maintenance dosage of half teaspoon, twice daily after this point. Note* Black Seed oil is a dietary supplement and the dosage amounts are anecdotal and results may vary from person to person. It is our responsibility to advise customers that if they have a serious medical condition, they should seek the advice of a licensed medical professional. We hope this answers your question(s). If we can be of any further assistance in the meantime, please do not hesitate to let us know. have a great day, Lina, customer care
Question:	What color is it white or grey
Answer:	Nothing buy the less expensive one. May come from different seller.
Question:	Has it been used for ham radio
Answer:	I couldn't really speak to this if the dosage strength is the same the company should come forward to address this question.

LMR-195

LMR-195 Coax is the same size as RG-58 & RG-316. Constructed for use up to 10 GHz, LMR195 makes a great cable for short runs at WiFi and Cellular frequencies and is equally suited for runs up to 100 feet for HF and VHF use. For CB, HF, and VHF antennas LMR-195 is Far Superior to RG-58.

The PE jacket used on LMR-159 makes it much tougher and able to stand abrasion and take a beating. It also makes it a bit less flexible than RG-58.

LMR-240

LMR-240 Coax is the same size as RG-8x or Mini-8 cable, about 1/4 inch in diameter. Although it is just a bit larger than LMR-195, LMR240 offers a significantly larger center conductor and supports better signal retention for longer cable runs and higher frequency use.

LMR-240 is an excellent cable for runs up to 25-30 feet in WiFi and Cellular use, and provides superior performance for HF/UHF/VHF installation up to 150 feet. The PE jacket used on LMR-240 makes it tougher and able to stand abrasion. It also makes it a bit less flexible than similar sized RG Type coax.

LMR-400

The First and still the Best! LMR-400 Coax is the same size as RG-8U or RG-213 cable, .405 inches in diameter. A larger cable means a MUCH larger center conductor and supports better signal retention for HF/VHF/UHF and higher frequency use. Like all LMR cables the PE Jacket and Dual Shield eliminates the need for conduit and avoiding electrical sources.

LMR-400 is an excellent cable for runs up to 50-70 feet in WiFi and Cellular use, and provides superior performance for HF/UHF/VHF installation up to 250 feet. The PE jacket used on LMR-400 makes it able to stand abrasion.

When you Just Need it to Work

Coax is deceptively simple! In reality the tolerances and purity of the Conductor, Dielectric, and Shield are critical in making a cable last.

MPD Digital cables are Warrantied for 10 years for simple reason. They Work and Last! Indoor, Outdoor, and Specialty Applications are all supported.

When Communication is Critical

The right cable and manufacturing techniques are Critical when you expect a communications cable to function at 100% of it's Rated Capacity.

MPD Digital Cables are one of the choice for critical communications. Current customers include the US Coast Guard, NOAA, NASA, Police and Fire Departments and the US Army and Marine Corps.

Sometimes MPD Digitals US Made RG Coax Works Better

We had a customer run 10,000 Watts of Power at 800 MHz. The cable failed. While we have coax cable made for up to 20 Kw, its not LMR.

Avoid Repeated Flexing and Bending

LMR comes in different versions, standard LMR is one of the most used, but has a solid center conductor. If you need a cable for a rotor, or installation where the cable will be bending up to 90 degrees often during use we build cables using LMR Ultra Flex.

LMR UltraFlex coax or PVC jacketed braided RG Coax is the go to cable for ultimate flexibility!

User questions & answers

Question:	Will it fit my mobile
Answer:	RG8X is a great general purpose coaxial cable. Can / should handle safely 800 - 1,000 watts with out much concern. I would NOT crowd much beyound that through it. 300 - 800 watts is the safest bet. If you are using a mobile unit as a BASE unit - sharing MOST base station units are merely mobile units in a box with an internal power supply within. ( some internal power supplies are just ample for the base units BASE operatives . and very little more if you are planning any sort on mods to the unit. The coax here is of medium quality only ample for an average user. Do not for get to ground the antennae arrest or as well to an external 3-4' copper ground source. # 14 wire should be ample.
Question:	is this the cheap chinese coax
Answer:	I don't consider CHEAP at all.Not a recent purchase either. It was in I believe November purchase. =) I prefer RG series coax as it is easier to use and flexibility is far greater in at least my applications. I have used the RG series for over twenty years. I have recommended this coax to many of my amateur radio friends. J L west coast.
Question:	What's the velocity factor for this cable? What's the outer jacket made of, and what is the inner dielectric made of
Answer:	Velocity factor is roughly .86, typical for foamed polyethylene dielectric. I believe the jacket is a pvc material. Good copper braid shielding too. This is a decent cable, but if you plan to run vjf or higher frequency, keep the runs short as this stuff gets lossy on vhf. For 11m use under 500 watts, i think its ideal as losses are much lower.
Question:	What's the power rating on this cable for 10 & 11 meter
Answer:	Twelve hundred watts safely / maximum. Beyond that it can be risky. RG8X beyond one hundred foot, begins "Line Loss" factors in the smaller sized/ rated coax faster that the larger rated (IE: LMR etc ) series coaxial coaxes.

User questions & answers

Question:	can this be used on cb radio at home not ham radio
Answer:	Yes. I use it for 11 meter Citizen Band Radio at home. It is a great coax for CB no interference with receive or transmit. I'm running a small linear off it that peaks at approx 150 watts and have no problems with it handling it.
Question:	Does this cable have a foil shield and good quality braid? The last cable I bought just a had a few strands of wire running along the outer layer
Answer:	Not the highest quality and has junk connectors but not bad for making jumpers out of

• High quality, with a much lower loss than RG58.
• RG-8/U Nominal Impedance: 50 ohm
• We only use genuine Amphenols PL259s.
• The Heat shrink tubing used is built with an adhesive inner wall which melts and flows, sealing against moisture and water or other contaminants
• Made in USA

User questions & answers

Question:	is this a coaxial digital cable
Answer:	Im not sure what the size different is, however I do believe your 3 year old can fit them they are pretty tight(snug fitting). Dunhams sale these as well if you want to possibly try them on. If I recall they were cheaper also. Hope this helps
Question:	what is the power rating ....how many watts can i push with this cable
Answer:	Product Dimensions: 6.5 x 3.7 x 7.7 inches So almost 1/2 the dimensions once folded up
Question:	What brand are the pl259 connectors on ur lmr 240 coax
Answer:	22 dB, they do make a 31 dB model but it is not low profile. I own the 31 dB muffs and they’re great, the 22 dB slim fit are useless. Can’t get them on my head and 22 dB is very little protection. Buy the full size muffs.
Question:	Are the ends removable
Answer:	These are not battery operated.

Product description

This is an Ultra Low Loss Marine Grade coaxial cable designed to be used for all shipboard radios and scanners where reliability and Ultra Low Loss cable is required. Made in the U.S.A. to the highest standards. This is an Ultra Low Loss Marine Grade coaxial cable designed to be used for all shipboard radios and scanners where reliability and Ultra Low Loss cable is required. Made in the U.S.A. to the highest standards. MPD Digital coaxial cable (coax) is designed to transfer your radio transmitter's energy to your antenna with as little loss as possible. It is precisely made, with the correct impedance for Marine VHF and AIS installations. We offer 2 kinds of 50-ohm coax cable for VHF radio installations: RG-8X, and LMR400, the Ultra Low Loss Marine Cable. Use the largest coax you can fit to reduce signal loss. Here is the reason: Almost all VHF radios start with about 25 watts of transmit power. As soon as the signal starts down the coax cable, it begins to lose strength. This loss is measured in db. High gain antennas cannot recover this lost energy, but they can focus the remaining energy across the water so you come through with as much punch as possible. We Do NOT recommend RG-58 for Marine Radio installations. RG-8x is just a fraction larger and just as flexible with Much Lower Loss. Bigger coax reduces signal losses between the radio and the antenna, which increases power at the antenna. MPD Digital manufactures cable assemblies for Amazon.com, OEMs and Individual users. We can customize cables for any RF use and will be happy to list any cable on Amazon on request. All cables are manufactured under MPD Digital Trade Marks and Pending Applicable Patents.

Because Sailboat Installations are Difficult

The issue most face is that the conduit or raceway inside your mast is smaller or the same diameter as your connectors! UHF connectors used on most Marine AIS and Radio equipment are 3/4 of an inch, the same size as the free space within most masts. The coaxial cable fits but the connectors don't!

Two Section Water Tight Ultra Low Loss Cable Runs

MPD will custom cut and configure antenna lines in Two Sections - the first with a UHF connector for your Antenna on one end and a small low loss cable connector on the other to allow you to easily slide the cable from the top to the bottom of the mast.

Ultra Low Loss with Ease of Installation

At the base of the mast we provide another water tight connection and a custom length of cable with a connection to your radio or AIS equipment. Simply run your cables from Antenna and radios and connect them together!

User questions & answers

Question:	How many watts are these rated for
Answer:	I would order directly from baofeng's web site. To get the proper cable.
Question:	Works with SO239 Connectors
Answer:	This one worked (briefly) for me whereas the cheap one didn't. I eventually successfully programmed my UV-5R after finding and downloading the correct drivers. (The Miklor site is incorrect/misleading regarding drivers for XP.) However, a few weeks later I tried to upload a change to my radio and got the dreaded "radio didn't respond" error message. I had changed nothing on my computer or radio or cable. Much sleuthing ensued. Drivers seemed ok. Windows told me "device is working properly." All to no avail. I have tried everything. I have an electrical engineering degree and have been messing with computers since 1964. I am at a dead end. If you're going to attempt to program a Baofeng radio using Chirp software and this cable, or any cable, please prepare yourself for a long, frustrating and perhaps ultimately unsuccessful enterprise. This is a terribly buggy and unreliable system.
Question:	Is this cable 50 ohm or 75 ohm? Thank you
Answer:	I do not believe LMR-400 is flexible enough for a 5" choke. I had some difficulty getting it through the wall of my "ham shack/office" where I needed to bend it to about a 8-10" radius. Having said that, I used this cable temporarily with a homemade J-Pole, and used RG-8/U for the coil. This worked well until I replaced the antenna.
Question:	Is this really for ham use (50 ohm) or is it for CB use (traditional 75ohm
Answer:	Sure, any of our coax applications can be used in conduit. I guess the real question would be why spend the extra funds for Ultra Flex and make it non-flexible? This listing for standard LMR-400 will work perfectly in that application. We also have Direct Burial should you need that application. Thanks, Ray N1MPD
