Cable specs get a bit trickier with RF. Basically, if you don't have a problem now, I wouldn't worry about your cable. That being said there can be huge differences in RG cable for antenna usage. The better the cable, the better the noise rejection and signal loss characteristics.The best I've found for general antenna use is the quad shielded stuff from Radio Shack. I use it for all my RF patch cables and such. It's stiff and a bear to work with, but has very low signal loss at TV through broadband data frequencies, and excellent noise rejection (with the quad shield and all)

And you're right... it's a royal pain to work with. Those crimp on connectors take some practice get them on correctly even with the proper tools. I'm using RadioShack quad-shield RG6U for my FM antenna.
