I don't recdall the exact figures, but it is close to half inch hard
line, not quite as good, and of course a little more difference on 440.
If your 9913 is still good, I wouldn't switch it. I doubt if you'll see
the difference. Somewhere, I thought I found a page that listed coax
losses, but if I recall, it listed so many and I didn't know what the
numbers were. I'll do some digging. THe foam dialectrics have always
had trouble with moisture and the 99913 is kind of a spiral with air
space in there, so good place for moisture. Agai n, unless it is bad, I
wouldn't change it out.
