I remember making some measurements on half-inch 75 ohm coax at
Texas A&M by simply pushing the braid away from a place on the
inner insulation and drilling a small hole to the center conductor.
We used an RF VTVM probe. I remember seeing the effects of
standing voltage waves but I have no idea what the accuracy
was.
