The shielding of the two cables is completely different.

I have a friend that runs a major satellite and aerial distributors
supplying the trade.  "crappy" is about the BEST word I've ever
heard him
use for RG6.

It's NOT a digital sat grade cable.  The Professional installers they
supply
won't touch it with a barge poll.

I have not motive to promote CT100 over RG6 other than passing on the
expert
advice of my friend to anyone that wants my opinion.
