    ^^^ Where do you get this stuff from?
    Oh I don't know....my BTEC HND, my Amateur Radio licence and 26 years experience.
    Cable has a much longer lifespan than 5 years for UV damage, if water is getting in at the antenna end it shows a poorly water proofed connection not an end of life cable.
    Where did I mention UV damage? Have you ever used self-amalgamating tape and gone back to it a few years later?
    I dont mean to disagree so much but this sort of advice costs people money, the amount of OAPs etc I see that have been caught out by salesman with that sort of patter.

    And of course you're an expert on this. Perhaps you'd like to share your qualifications and time spent in radio communications?
