Thanks to all that replied. I was reminded that the shielding is
aluminum etc. I had forgotten that little detail over the years.
I do now recall that the cable I used did have copper - it was used
exclusively at the head-ends and was hard to get.
Hence, I think I will parallel some RG8X, use cable ties and Goop, and
make my own. That way I can make solid soldered connections for everything.
Gotta do things right the first time and have it last many years with no
further service.
Thanks for the reminder.
