[QUOTE="Analoguesat, post: 857684, member: 176362"] You can make your own cables up easily enough - use a sharp knife (something like a Stanley knife & mind your fingers! Do a couple of practises before you start and waterproof the joins. Self amalgam tape is recommended but if the lnb has a rain cover I never bother and just pull the cover down. In fact I tend to buy lnbs with rain covers now as its much simpler. I have a somewhat cavalier attitude to waterproofing cables and accept if a seal goes the cable will need to be replaced - and one one occasion I found a cable totally full of water - when I cut through it to remove it an impressive amount of water poured out :-rofl2 [/QUOTE]
