Hi David,
The answers in order... you can quickly test the line by
placing a signal through it and measuring the results. I
would say you should check the line at both Tx power
level and Rx low levels. Based on my experience with some
lines, a good tx power loss value doesn't mean the low level
rx value is usable. You don't want to stick a big resistor
in line with your receiver to antenna path.
The best way to determine the required connectors would be
to get a picture of the line to some of us who can probably
tell you what the line is by looking at it.
Think about cutting away a small portion of the outside jacket
and talking a picture of the line end with a ruler next to it in
a well lighted area. Any lettering on the jacket also helps
id the brand/type of line.
cheers,
