Good deal on RG-174

[Rescue9]

I ordered this the other day and figure'd I'd pass along the link. It's 100' RG-174 with SMB connectors attached to each end. I'm not so sure I want to keep the SMB connectors attached on mine as I need BNC, but I figured for the price I couldn't go wrong. $4.99 plus free shipping. Not bad since wireman rg-174 is $0.23 per foot.

Maybe not so good of a deal. I just opened it and its only about 22ft in length. Completely not what was advertised!

How's the quality?  $0.23/ft shipped is still a good price.

Seems to be good quality. Very tight braid, no sheath slippage, clean cooper strands. Apparently it was a GPS extension cable for an externally mounted sensor. All in all good price for the cable, I just wanted around 30 ft for endfed operations, not ~20.

I hate it when that happens. But at least you've got materials for choke balun or other projects.
