Hello, all. I would like to replace the probe cable on a portable Geiger (GM) counter with a shielded, coiled coaxial cable with male BNC connectors on both ends. Currently I'm using a straight length of RG-58 but the GM counter originally was supplied with a coiled cable (the outer rubber (?) covering eventually split in many places). A coiled cable is no longer available from the manufacturer, Eberline, but I did locate one from Ludlum (another manufacturer of GM instruments) for about $80.00. Does anyone know of any other sources of coiled, connectorized cable as a less expensive alternative? The cable should be shielded and capable of withstanding at least 1000 VDC (audio/mic cable will not suffice). Thanks for your time and comment. Sincerely,
