OK, i would like to ask the pros to weigh in here.

I believe that for CATV/SAT clad is just as good as solid copper because of the skin effect combined with the higher frequencies transmitted.

Do you agree or disagree?

by the way, Comcast in NJ are using copper clad.

Copper clad is mainly used in CATV, both work well in high frequencies depending on how well they are prepped at the time of installation.
