after Sky have installed a Sky+ box is it possible to move the box easily?
I'd like to now move mine out of the living room into node zero.  Can I
join
up / extend the current cables?  Will I suffer a quality loss?  Is it
better
to re-wire all the way back to the LNB?  Is that an easy job or am I better
getting a Sky installer to do?

Malcolm

Or PF100/QF100/WF100 or the zillion other variants of double screened
coax available. Satcure has some info on the different sorts. Mine
(PF100) came from TLC-Direct and seems like decent stuff. It's the foam
insulation type, rather than airgap.
