Less loss with RG 11. I doubt for a RV you will require this though as most runs are less than 100 ft or 31.5 meters. Hardly worth it for a db or two.

No line loss. It has weatherproof Belden connectors to limit interference from the weather, nickel and anti-corrosion materials, UL listed, 14 AWG solid copper core @ 3Gigahertz, 75 ohm.

I have been having problems with my satellite setup, and this is the last thing to replace. We camp in a lot of places where we need 100' to get to a place with a clear view. Hoping this helps solve my issues. And also hoping to never buy another cable! I was just wondering if anybody else has used this cable. Thanks for the replies!

I wouldn't use RG11for home or R/V use. You'll never see an advantage in runs of less than 100+ feet. It's harder to bend, slightly larger in diameter and more expensive. If you already have some (and the fittings) well then...

UPDATE- best cable I have ever used! Heavy duty, rolls up nicely to fit in a small tote, and fixed any issues I was having. Completely water proof, and worth every penny of the $48.00, plus had it in 3 days.
