Non-contaminating coax was coax where the jacket material did not gradually migrate into the shield and bugger up the shield's properties. I pulled out a lot of old coax when I used to do honest work (instead of babysitting computers), the contamination of shield was apparant because the material that moved in was black. The insulating material between the centre conductor and the shield would turn yellow but it did not seem to become intimate with the shield like the jacket did. -- Richard Loken VE6BSV, Systems Programmer - VMS : "Anybody can be a father Athabasca University : but you have to earn Athabasca, Alberta Canada : the title of 'daddy'" ** [EMAIL PROTECTED] ** : - Lynn Johnston ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Submissions: [email protected] Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - unsubscribe drakelist in body Hopelessly Lost: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - help in body of message Zerobeat Web Page: www.zerobeat.net - sponsored by www.tlchost.net ----------------------------------------------------------------------
