Hi,

The LNB puts out a huge signal so almost any sort of 75R coax will be fine. Cheap 'satellite coax' will be fine for even quite long runs. RG6 is going to be tricky to fit into an F-plug I expect.

So have managed to get a signal on my small old sky dish, going to try 80cm dish soon.

Installed the 80cm dish today, may try a position tweak but looking ok at 7.1db after first alignment, the old dish was boarder line and just over 4.0db

Hi Gareth,

Perhaps I should leave well alone, knowing sod’s law you will never get the same results if you start tweaking.
