    Stranded Core Coax

    We have had RG11 installed in some flats for use with Virgin/Internet. It should I think have been RG6 but the guy at Virgin was insistent it should be RG11. The RG11 has a stranded (not a solid) central conductor. I need to get an F-type connector on the end. What’s the best way to do...
