Yes, rg58 should be about 40pf/ft.  just beware, if the length becomes a
significant fraction of a wavelength then you have to calculate the
impedance based on the length and velocity factor.

Hi All

This might seem like a silly question, but is it possible to make a 150pf
capacitor out of RG-58?  Thanks and  I need one for an EFHW I am building.
