After reading Jim's e-mail I searched through all my radio books
(Terman, Kraus et al) for enlightenment and the reason for 50ohms as a
standard is not discussed at all.
Any references Jim?

I read somewhere that 77 ohms cable was determined to be the impedance
giving lowest attenuation, and that when it was filled with polyethylene
dielectric it created a 50 ohms cable.
