check the f-plugs have no stray strands of shielding wire loose(check both ends) and if you have an ohm meter do a continuity test leave both ends disconnected and put one probe on the center wire of one end of your cable and the other on the f-plug case and with the meter on you should not get a reading if you do its shorting out somewhere.
