[QUOTE="intracube, post: 1023272, member: 380516"] Thanks for the extra info folks :) As st1 said, too often the focus is on magic 0.1dB LNBs and not so much on good cabling practices. In the short term I'll probably opt for a connection off the cold water (after checking the earthing is all good). It wouldn't be too much extra work to get a dedicated stake and run a cable up the side of the house. I already have to route a set of coax cables the same way. It might also be interesting to do a comparison with my digital scope on the cold water pipe earth vs a dedicated point and see if the noise characteristics are noticeably different. [/QUOTE]
