Yes, and the metal which could have filled the hollow space would add no
conductivity at HF.

Ever seen the coax used on TV transmission lines? In rough numbers is is
a pipe about 6" in diameter with another pipe about 1" in diameter held
centered inside the larger one by spacers.

Yup. Also applies to rigid coax used for 400 MHz Naval radars.
