[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Coax cable for free

[Charles Holbrow]

Ted wants more information about the coax I am offering.  The long runs
of white cable were used to connect an incoming cable signal to several
output jacks for TV or modems in different rooms of an apartment.
Therefore most of the cable is CATV 6 Series 18 AWG.  The connectors are
mostly F compression.  The attached table shows the lengths, colors, and
the specifications printed on the cables and their connectors.

The splitter is a Holland GHS-2FC LI 2-way splitter 5-1000 MHz.
