"RG-174" dictates a lot of this...

From:

   http://www.therfc.com/coax.htm

   7 strands .0063" Cu-clad center conductor with poly dielectric & type
   IIA non-contaminating jacket. Nominal impedance 50 Ohm; velocity of
   propagation 65.9% outer diameter .100"; 98% tinned Cu braid.


As for purchasing... I was able to find the cable in searching the web 
sites of:

   Mouser Electronics, http://www.mouser.com/
     (500' roll or 1000' roll)

   Hamtronics, http://www.hamtronics.com/accys.html
     6' for $3.00

   ElectroCables, http://www.electrocables.com/cpage09.htm

   Antennas & More, http://www.antennasmore.com/price.htm


I just fired up Alta Vista (http://www.altavista.com/) and searched on 
"RG-174".
