After I responded I realized I might have an old Cablewave catalog with specs for that cable in it, and sure 'nuff, I found one.  Here are specs:

FLC78-50J
Center OD: 0.357"
Outer ID: 0.850"
OuterOD: 0.990"
Jacket OD: 1.124"
VF: 88%

Connector part numbers:
738828 Type N male
738829 Type N female
738833 UHF male
738832 UHF female
738831 7/8" flange

Let me know if you want me to look for connectors, or if you want a pic of the catalog page.  73.
