OK Hal - perhaps the wimpy RG59 was not shielded enough?(like the quad-shielded RG6). I really can't say that I know for sure. I would like to find out.
RG59 has a lighter wire gauge than RG6/11/500 cable.
RG59 typically sports a 20awg conductor
RG6 typically has an 18awg conductor
RG11 is typically 14awg
Hardline coax typically has a .109" conductor
