I was just given a coil of 7/8 hardline coax that I have not seen
before.
It has plastic discs inside to separate the core from the outer
aluminum tube which I suppose uses air as the dielectric. Anybody got
any info on this stuff
and any advantages it may have over the normal hardline cable?

That's nothing real new. Yes, is air dielectric and slightly less lossy
than regular foam dielectric heliax. Since you described the outer
conductor as aluminum, I suspect it is 75 ohm cable.... but not
necessarily. There should be info printed onto the outer plastic jacket
material mthat would help in specifically identifying that cable.
