Hmmm...  I'm not sure where I got the idea it was stranded with a steel 
core.??  It still should work fine through HF, but the bending radius 
might be limited compared to RG-400, which is what I use.  I think RG 
400 is almost the same as 8X except for the voltage rating, flexibility, 
and price.
