<d1b2>
<azonenberg> Experimental AKL-PT5 cable test data just came in, will be doing hands on mechanical testing soon when they actually get here in person
<d1b2>
<azonenberg> S21 of three different expeirmental cables
<azonenberg>
Green = our current probe cable, 36" 0.047" micro coax
<azonenberg>
Blue = experimental hybrid, 24" 0.86" spliced to 12" of 0.047"
<azonenberg>
Red = experimental hybrid, 30" 0.086" spliced to 6" of 0.047"
<azonenberg>
the idea is to have a long, stiff, low-loss section that transitions to a more flexible, lossier cable at the very end to provide a strain relief for the probe head
