No confusion here, Sylvan.  The difference is I installed this stuff for a living for many years.  You're wrong.  For standard CCTV
cameras in applications with ruins longer thaqn you're likely to see in almost any residence, RG59 works perfectly.  That hasn't
changed.

Since I can do 300' runs with RG59, there's almost never a nbeed for RG6.  It's a waste of the customer's money with no added
benefit.

RG59 gives perfectly clear CCTV at virtually any length you're going to find in a residence.

This is CCTV -- not RF.  It's not enough to look only at the cable's capabilities.  You need to decide what is appropriate for the
application.  CCTV doesn't benefit from RG6 over RG59 in these applications.
