OK, Bob E - it appears that the ball is in your court. In the interests
of peace and harmony, and to prevent confusion, please could you please tell us exactly (and I mean EXACTLY) which RG-6 vs RG-6Q parameters you are concerned about? Ian OK, thanks for the discussions. I have a VHF/UHF omnidirectional antenna with integral amplifier for TV reception: http://www.amazon.com/Antennacraft-5...mplified-HDTV- Antenna/dp/B007Z7YOKS Several broadcast towers surround me, from 40 to 50 miles: http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=29&q=id%3d5b9405cba93e1 5 Terrain is pretty flat. The antenna is currently connected to RG6 located indoors, up high in a 1-story cathedral-ceiling home. Signal reception is marginal, gauged by the HDTV's (relative) Signal Strength display; dropouts occur regularly on some channels. I plan to mount the antenna outdoors on the peak of the roof. I was planning to use RG6 quad-shield, but wanted to check whether it is truly a better solution or not. Cable run indoors now is about 50 ft. From the roof location this will increase to 75 or 100, depending on the route I choose, hence my question. Thanks. |
