Doing a bit of rewiring soon, and was looking to buy some quality cable by the foot. <html xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"> <head> <title>RG59 AND RG6 COAXIAL CABLE

According to an email from them the RG6 they sell by the foot has the same specs as their "Professional Quality" cable. They did not tell me what brand it is however.

"60% aluminum braid. 100% foil shield. Super durable PVC jacket. Foamed polyethylene dielectric. Solid Copper Center conductor. UL Approved / DirecTV Approved / SBCA Compliant / Swept-Tested to 3 GHz"

Is this very good cable?
Anywhere else have a better deal?

Thanks.

That's good cable but have you checked your local Craigslist. I bought a 1000' box of Vextra cable for $40.00 but it was local pickup, don't know if he will ship.

Thanks for the tip, I found the same cable but its not local. I'm checking on shipping.
 
You might check ebay. I picked up a very nice roll of comscope RG6 quadshield for $35 shipped from an ebay seller recently. It was advertised as 750ft, but I've pulled over that much off the roll already, and there's still at least 100ft left on there.
 
RG-6, 3Ghz rating, solid copper center conducter......doesn't get much better than that when it comes to cable. Only thing that might make it better would be quad shielding, but in most cases that's probably overkill anyway.
