What is the best type of coax cable?

I just Belden rg-8. Is this good enough for an 90' run?

I'd use the best coax you can get for a 90' run, common RG8 could drop your signal power by half or more at that distance. The best cable is Belden 9913, for a good comparison of differnet cables and db loss look at the chart for attenuation at
