Very High Quality Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I use ABR LM400 Ultraflex exclusively, I've found the quality is outstanding, and have never had a failure. An added bonus is that it's made here in America.

very,very nice Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
bought some to replace a older coax i had been using for vhf/uhf. i bought it bulk and soldered my own pl-259 on each end. works flawlessly! higher meter reading by a s unit,and it appears very rugged. the outer jacket is very tough!overall i am very happy with abr brand coax. i also went and bought some 6 ft jumpers of ultraflex by them also,as i wanted a solder crimped connection to try for a change. i connected them to my amp and radio/tuner/etc. nice coax,ide buy again!

A Great Feedline! Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
Replaced my RG-8x with 81 ft. of LMR-400 from ABR via HRO. Wow, what a great improvement! Quality build, easy to bury and install and makes a very noticeable difference. Recommend highly!

Outstanding Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
ABR website is very easy to navigate. Payment processing without problems. Shipped the next business day, with email to me that shipment was given to USPS. Free shipping over $75 purchase with USPS Express delivery. Arrived as advertised with the green weather proof end-caps protecting the PL-259 (the connectors I ordered). Highest quality connection of the PL-259 to the coax. The coax itself has all the quality criteria that I was looking for and was easy to handle, will most likely choose it again for my next antenna. What I did not at first realize, was that this coax that I ordered is not the "LMR-400UF", it is the ABR Industries equivalent.

By the way: NOT every coax may be used inside a building. This coax ( /U or UF ) has fire-retardant within.
