The flood of replies I received on the up side for RG8X usage as a feedline
for 80 meter sloping dipoles was astounding.....but there were a few guys who
noted that since I live in FL and since this is an application mebbe I would
be better off with a solid, vs. a foam, dielectric.

So, the new query is, have you used RG59 at 1500W on 80 meters, and what
are/were your experiences....thanks again to all who make this place a great
source of info.
