[QUOTE="Analoguesat, post: 551280, member: 176362"] FWIW - Ive got tens of metres of coax running up and down the garden round the house etc and for the strong Euro sats I use the ultra cheap stuff you get from B&Q. It works fine :D I wouldnt use it where I wanted every last bit of signal on the weak sats, but for 19E 13E etc it works lovely. Ive even got a couple of lengths where the outer sheath got split when it got caught - a bit of duck tape round it waterproofs it perfectly. Theres an 8 way disecq switch screwed to the fence with a plastic bag over it to waterproof it...... What with bent second hand dishes, zip tied lnbs, switches and joins in the cables and the cheapest nastiest coax cable available my sat kit probably shouldnt work at all :-rofl2 [/QUOTE]
