          Comments about RadioShack® 50-Ft. RG-58 Coax Cable Assembly:

          you only get half the power to your antenna, not much receive, there is no shielding at all in it, not enough grounding to it and just a pure waste of manpower, copper, plastic, and money.

            Works just as good as the RG8U coax

              Comments about RadioShack® 50-Ft. RG-58 Coax Cable Assembly:

              They say that RG8U coax is better to use on your base radios. It has the same 50 Ohm and the same 95% shield as does the RG8U coax. And it is a lot easier to run it from your antenna to your radios.

              Comments about RadioShack® 50-Ft. RG-58 Coax Cable Assembly:

              I use the cable to connect my Ham Radio to a 6 meter antenna. The cable was cut and was hard to repair because of the small size of the wires. It is good if it does not get cut. If it gets cut, you will probably buy a new cable but that is alright too.
