Hi,

What would be the maximum distance that the Sky RF output can be sent to another room without appreciable signal loss?

I hope to output the RF signal from a Sky receiver via coax to an upstairs room where the length of cable required would be approximately 20 metres. If I use CT100 would I need an inline amplifier or modulator etc to get a viewable picture upstairs?

Thx & Rgds

Should be fine with any good quality satellite grade coax, no significant loss at that frequency over that distance.
