Hello, I'm buiding some simple interconnects but I curently have a problem. I'm using a RG-6 cable that is a king of silver plated, when im soldering it, the lead won't solder on wire at all. The solder im using is a 60/40 w/flux in it...
I'm mostly begineer at soldering but with gold plated interconect and copper wire I don't have any problem.
What should I do?

The solder is simply "floating over the wire"!
 
" RG6/U dual-shield 75 ohm coaxial cable for TV and security camera applications. Low-loss for use on long runs. Aluminium braid and foil shield. Gas-injected (foamed) PE dielectric. Copper clad steel conductor for tensile strength and reliable connection to F-connectors."

RG6 hasn't silver plated wires, IMHO.
(AL braid, Cu plated FE)
You waste your time, IMO.

Regards,
Milan
