I don’t think HamWAN or even the typical WISP is the target audience for this product.

I could easily see this product used on 1000 foot broadcast towers in the Midwest that are hit by multiple lightning strikes per
Month.

I believe this was a nice way of telling you to "fuck off". :D

7.50/ft is insane, and it's not even got a water block in it.  I've used a
belden product which was gel filled and armored/shielded for under a dollar
per foot.

Even 1 5/8" coax is 7/foot new, and it's got 4 oz of copper per foot in it.
