I just moved into my new home and all of the coax runs are apparently quad shield RG6. I am trying to add an F-Connector to one of the cables and I can't figure out exactly how I need to strip the cable and add the connector. I did buy some RG6-QS connectors, so that piece should be ok. When I strip the outer layer of cable there are two layers of braided wire with a foil sheating in between. I am using crimp on connectors (Ideal) and I don't know how to install them. Do I need to peel back both layers of braided wire and the foil between them and then fold it over the black outer cable or do I cut all of the braided wire and layer of foil between them and leave just the last layer of foil, insulation, and copper wire?
I have had no issues installing connectors on regular RG6, but this quadshield cable is giving me headaches.
Thanks
