All right experts, here comes another one to overload your 
brain cells. :)   Picked up about 200'+ coil of coax at the local
flea mkt.  It's the size of rg-58/9, has a clear outer jacket, appears
to be 95% or better silver(coat) braid, has a bnc conn. on each end, and
the last known use was as a delay line for a radar test system.
  It has a paper label running the entire lenght of it marked as follows,
FEDERAL CABLE - R.E.C. - DIV. OF I.T.T.  AN TYPE RG-55/U     005#### /FT
  the #### being 4792 through 5021.  Obviously that's the length marks, but
I can't find anything on it.  The only cable/coax guide I have at present
is a Belden master catalog from '87-'88, and it jumps fron RG-6 to RG-58
with nothing inbetween. :(  I'd *like* to use it for my 2mtr antenna run
but without any specs on it..............
  Thanks for any help on this one.
