I'm planning to hook up a Yagi antenna on my roof for FM reception. I've got the Yagi, chimmney mounting straps, 300 ohm to 75 ohm transformer, now I need some cable. People seem to favor the solid copper, well shielded RG-6 type cable. Belden 1694A cable appears to have the specs I need. Anyone know a good source?

    I prefer Westlake Electronic Supply for my cables purchases. They have good prices and offer many different products. (Besides being local! :D)

    Thanks guys! Markertek only has big spools. Westlake does sell by the foot. Blue Jeans Cables will also sell it by the foot and terminate both ends any way I want. Hmmmm. I'll ponder my choices.

    I thought the first option on Markertek was to buy by the foot.
