IIRC, thinnet was RG-59 (73 ohms). Good stuff for dipoles.

RG-59 is commonly used for TV leads, by those too cheap to use RG-6.
Perhaps it was also used for token ring?

RG-58 (50 ohm) was used for thin ethernet.

being 50ohm so maybe a piece or three might come down if it has radio
use.

It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral
busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his
cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our
own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval
of their consciences. -- C. S. Lewis
