  I don&#39;t see any probem with the F connectors. There are millions of them &lt;br&gt; used in cable TV and other TV applications. They are cheap enough that if &lt;br&gt; you leave the coax long you can just cut the end off and install another in &lt;br&gt; a short period of time.

  Hi Bob, &lt;br&gt; Then RG-174 would work just as well - if you wanted something very &lt;br&gt; thin and flexible. &lt;br&gt; However, the common application of the term &amp;quot;patch cord&amp;quot; is a short &lt;br&gt; connector to a variety of very much longer transmission lines. If &lt;br&gt; that is the sense of &amp;quot;patch cord&amp;quot; that you mean, then your longer &lt;br&gt; lines, for your range of frequencies, should be very large diameter
