An RF flexible printed wiring board transmission line for connecting strip transmission line microwave assemblies without the use of coaxial connectors and coaxial cables. The flexible transmission line includes a thin flexible dielectric ribbon, having on one side a ground plane layer and on the other side a microstrip conductor strip. Plated through holes at the ends of the flexible line provide access to both the ground plane and conductor strip on the same side of the flexible line, to facilitate interconnection of the microwave assemblies to the flexible line. The flexible line operates at microwave frequencies with little or no radiation leakage.
