I have a lot of it, both Belden 8213 and Davis RF-branded with the same 
specs (and I measured loss, Zo, and VF). The fit quite well into 83-1SP 
connectors. But remember, Most RG-numbers are NOT a spec, and have not 
been for decades.

When I terminated those lengths of 1/2-in CATV hardline, I found neat 
methods online for improvising use UHF connectors, and I used my own 
variation of that method.
