From reading this thread alot of guys are still
using Rg-6 for base band video signals, and are
trying to run RGB or COMPONENT over common rg-6!
Are you using CCTV specified cable for this?
Common Catv Rg-6 does not have the freeqs for
that app.
I have to say that most commercial jobs that
I have been involved with in the past would spec
in 59 for all base band due to copper instead
of steel. But this new tinned copper braid "Serial
Digital" coax from liberty can let us all make
our own RGB or Components in house or on site.
It just scares me to see alot of guys throwin
around Rg-6 for everything and expecting the new
guys to know that there is a difference in cabling.

Yes, only solid copper RG-6 should be used for baseband applications, NOT copper clad steel. Belden 1694A or 1695A are also excellent choices. They will also function as outstanding cables for broadband applications.
