Well it might be just as simple as what it says...Andrews hard line. Post a picture, that would help

That appears to be solid core and double stranded braid. If i.didnt k oe better id say it looks loke lmr400, but its too thin. Pretty cool there man. Im not sure but Andrews-something seems to be a good guess.

Probably the same as LMR 240...which is about the same diameter as RG mini-8, just has the tin shielding over the center core jacket...LMR 240 also requires a reducer to put on the connector...

LMR 240 does not have the solid center conductor though

everything you want to know is on that spec sheet. I didn't check the dimensions but it says peak power is 10.4kw

as for size it will go on a pl259 with some work. the center conductor just does fit i mean its tight. shit now if i just had that kind of power its rated at..

I use ANDREW 240 for all my small jumpers and it is small like mini 8x but with a solid core. Andrew specs say it will take 5.6kw peak.. great stuff.. This stuff he has looks alot bigger..
