Got my radios, cables, etc to put my base and mobile in operation about a month ago, but haven't been able to finish because its been raining here about every 4 days -- imagine that in West Texas. I had 4" yesterday and its just been too muddy to get my antenna mast set. My mast will be about 35 ft. Starting with a simple J-pole antenna just to see how it does, but one thing I noticed is that the LMR400 cable is pretty stiff. Would a short pigtail from the main cable to the radio that is more flexible be reasonable - if so, what cable would be best.
