the only way to tell is to take a sample and strip it down. some rg-6 is
copper covered steel, some is solid copper.

Is the center conductor of the el-cheapo RG-6 found in home
improvement stores always copperweld? It seems to be 18AWG copperweld
but maybe I'm being naive...

Is this part of the RG-6 mil-spec, or just the way they make it today?
