Default Lossy Coax: how is energy lost ?

Still, nicely done. Thanks for your efforts and explanations.

Figure 22 of http://www.qsl.net/i0jx/ros.html separately shows loss caused by
copper (in red) and loss caused by dielectric (in blue) for a 100-meter run
(about 330 feet) of LMR-400 coax (similar to RG-213 with foam dielectric) versus
frequency.

The formulas used for the plot are shown just above it.

Though it is in italian, it should be easily understandable.
