This process can be reversed by annealing, but that's a bit tricky to

. . . no sweat, just run a 2M kilowatt thru the 174 and I guarantee
the center conductor will get "annealed" . .

Yeah, but once the annealing has been completed, I doubt that the
cable will still have a 50-ohm characteristic impedance ;-)
