[SI-LIST] Re: SMA cable for TDR

Gore cables aren't cheap ( particularly Phase Flex ) because they are 
very high quality / high bandwidth cables that perform well and if not 
abused will last many years. For a high bandwidth TDR or VNA Gore is 
always my first choice.  How much performance you need from your cables 
depends on what kind of rise times you want to deliver to your DUT from 
the TDR, and how consistently you want to deliver it.  If cash is a 
problem you can always look through the used market.
