A good source for coaxial cable, and all sorts of products, tools,
components,and the like for building cable tv systems and broadband
networks is:
TeleWire Supply
Englewood, Colorado
1-88-TeleWire (1-888-9473)
They have a web site at http://www.telewiresupply.com
This outfit is one of the primary suppliers to the Cable TV industry, so are
well equipped to provide most of the items you have spoken about, including
coax.
(Note: I have Nothing to do, whatsoever) with TeleWire.
