Boxcar,rg-142 would work but its loss at 30 mhz is just over 2db per 100' and 5db at 150mhz.is it worth the losses?

Dindin,
I was just curious. I guess I could of did a little searching on the internet but I figured I'd get a better response in this forum. I would like to use it for a scanner since I'm almost out of mini 8. thanks for the input!!
