Advice on RG6 cable for better installation

[Sadoun]

Some advice on best coaxial cable to use:

• RG6 cable
• 18AWG Solid Copper Center Conduction
• Dual Shielded 60% bare Aluminum braid,
• 100% aluminum foil shield
• PVC jacket & Foamed Polyethylene
• Sweep tested 3GHz.
• Do not make any sharp bends. No bends or loops less than 20x diameter of cable.
• Don't use too many splitters or cuts between LNBF and receiver.
  
• Use a 2 or 3 blade cable stripper to strip the ends before putting connectors
  
• Use the best compression connectors (PPC EX6XL are recommended)
• Use a compression tool to install the connectors. Don't rely on cheap or inappropriate tool.

Didn't know anybody still made solid copper center conductor RG6 any more, I haven't found any close by in the last 2yrs or more. Copper-clad crap that rusts in a matter of hours I can find everywhere lol. Thanks for the info, now when the commodity prices fall some more-I know where to shop for it.
