Has anyone ever used this RG-8U direct replacement coax:

http://www.jefatech.com/product/LL400B/Low_Loss_400_Coax__By_The_Foot.html

I found it while I was looking for more information on another RG-8U replacement: LMR400.

I'm looking to replace a feed line for 2m/70cm.

73's

I must admit at 43 cents a foot it sounds like a bargain.
For ham use, it will likely be just fine.
I have been burned too many times by "bargain" look alike coax so I will stick with my Belden 7810.

I use 100' Of the stuff. Based on the size of the center conductor and the shield I would have to say that it is the real deal.
