[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 811050, member: 323322"] Quality is the important parameter. If it's a Sky Box you are using, then I suspect (as is often the case) that the "metering" is up to cock anyway. All that matters is that you have lock plus a decent rain margin. Don't rely on "metering" on crude receivers! Amplifiers compensate for excessive losses, but they also amplify - and add - noise: Ergo, no benefit if you already have lock. 40m of cable isn't unduly long especially with a decent size dish on a strong Satellite.
