Well a big first step would be to figure out what sort of line it is.
There should be a number printed on or embossed into the jacket
every so often.
Visual inspection for any damage to the copper jacket, kinks, water
intrusion.. Hardline does not like to be bent, you need to observe
a proper minimum bend radius that is specified for the type of cable.
Connectors: Well, be prepared to be amazed at pricing. Ebay is a
good source, but of course you need to know what sort of cable you
have first. Many connectors can be re-used, but you need to
carefully follow the directions to apply the connectors. It's easy
to make an expensive mess by being sloppy or taking short cuts.
