RE: extending aerial cable...

["Nikola Kasic" <nikola@xxxxxxx>]

This one from Maplins (LL Sat Cable
Code: XS46A Guide Price: =A30.99 ) has this attenuation:
      Overall dia.: 7=B78mm
      Nom. conductor area: 1=B725mm=3D
      Nominal impedance: 75Ohms.
      Attenuation per 100m: 4=B79dB at 100MHz
     18=B774dB at 1000MHz

Which makes it better then CT100 and CT125 at 100MHz and between two of the= m
at 1000MHz.
Should it be fine then?
I am worried about bending CT125 as someone mentioned. I need one right
angle bending in the corner, behind skirting.
Is attenuation all that matters, and which frequencies are more important for TV signal, lower or higher?
What are the frequencies of Ch04-Ch80 (I think something like that is a
range on TV)
Cheers,
Nik

  Mike Huggins has some information on the different cable attenuation= at:

  I used CT125 grade aerial cable which apparently is the best, and   typically used for satellite TV installations, although some people<= BR>   suggest that CT100 grade cable is sufficient.  Bought a reel of= 25m from
  a local electrical trade supplier for about =A330 (can't really reme= mber).
