Hi Folks,

A few years back some 9913 I was using apparently got water in the coax. I say 
this because of fluctuating SWR issues and I noted the shield when cut into was 
almost 'black'. So for my minor purpose of using spare coax for my dump power 
on an 80 meter 4-square can some of this coax be used? When I scrap the shield 
after exposing it with a knife will reveal the shinny copper again so is that 
sufficient to use some for reading dump power on my wattmeter at the shack? 
Seems if I try and get readings like what I had with the LMR-400 then it could 
be used. Coax is so expensive these days I want to use my valuable LMR-400 
elsewhere if possible. And having a convenient way of reading dump power is of 
course important too.
