Hi The microwave trick is fine for working out if it is a lossy material. Unfortunately what gets you in this case is more than just loss. A coax cable has core material that will (usually) do quite well in a microwave. None the less, the delay through the coax is different than through air ( = the coax has a velocity factor).
