Everything I Knew About Coax Cable was WRONG!

I’ve totally changed my mind on what coax I want to use in and around my shack! I always looked to the "ham radio standards" of RG-58 or RG-213 coax cable for my station… then I discovered Messi and Paoloni cable. AMAZING!

**Video Update** The comparison in regards to loss was between LMR cable (solid core) and stranded core cable (Hyperflex 10).

Generally all solid conductors have better attenuations, the fact that Hyperflex 10 has equal performance is an incredible achievement considering it is much more flexible.
Also – Hyperflex 5 has full copper screening – not copper clad aluminium.

If you want to have the highest quality and top performance coaxial cable for your station – check out Messi and Paoloni.
