coaxial cable for wire wrap? back in the 1980s i worked for a prototyping company, and we did a LOT of wire wrap assembly. i remember one item we had on hand was kynar coaxial cable which had a center conductor, and a foil shield with a piece of 30Ga wire running along it and then an outer kynar sheath... basically 50 ohm wire wrap coaxial cable... i'm working on a project where i'm planning on using a lot of wire wrap, but i can't seem to find anybody that still makes the coax cable.... i don't mind using RG-174 if i have to, but would prefer to use the kynar coax if i can find it.... anybody got any clue where i might find any?
 
i'm guessing nobody makes the stuff anymore... looks like i'll have to resort to twisted pair instead... or RG214 with prepped ends that can be wire wrapped...
 
coaxial cable for wire wrap?
The only thing I ever possibly saw that used in was a PDP-8 I owned a few decades back. The cardframe was wire wrap and it did have coax links.
Though I believe that was standard wire wrap, not the mini wrap that is still available?
