Our entire RF system is wired with RG-11 which uses male F connectors 
with an

"integral inner pin". The center conductor of RG-11 is far too large
to use as a center pin directly.

And, yes there is co-ax with twisted center conductor. This is 
done to increase the surface area of the center conductor to help 
reduce the losses caused by "skin effect" at very high RF frequencies.
