Much/most of the cable tv cable is steel core(with a copper coating) and Al braid. The DirectTV coax has a solid copper core and for me worth stripping. As was stated before the cb/ham radio coax normally has a copper braid and solid copper core. Some coax has a solid copper core and Al braid. The only stuff I don't strip is the Steel core ones. (by core I am referring to the center conductor) Mike.
