So now that has been cleared up..the question remains..
Is there any other coax available for amateur use that has a 20 years
service life warranty?

20 year jacket warranty is _not_ a 20 year service life warranty.
From what other posters are measuring, the cable has a close to
zero service life. Roy can certainly measure things properly and
if he says the piece he had was bad then I believe him. I believe
Greg too. There are just too many bad measurements showing up,
done by experienced and competent people, for it to be coincidence.
The cable is bad out of the box in at least some instances. There
is no warranty covering that AFAICS.
