[QUOTE="vjeko, post: 661746, member: 338788"] Hi, your input is very much appreciated !!!- I can see that I will now be able to solve this - just a few more clarifications please: (a)The ABS plastic pipe - in which branch of industry is it best to look for this type of pipe ? (b)There is a mention of shading the multiswitch, so I presume you thought it would be very near the LNB or even outside - just wondering, does the distance from LNB to multiswitch make much difference for my setup/coax lenghts - I can place the multiswitch at (X) , or (Y) (would prefer (Y) layout: LNBs ->5m coax outside-> inside wall (point X) -> 8m coax -> central place for connection of coax/computer network (point Y) -> coax to rooms cca 8m - 15m each leg (c)"A white dish will crack the LNB cap in 2-3 years" - I guess this is due to reflection of white "color" - does it make that much difference (White/grey) /doesn't painting the LNB affect reception ? (d)When it comes to coax, is it worthwhile paying for the better cable ? Over here I can find: no name coax DIGITAL 75ohm (cca 0,3Euro/m) Hirschmann KOKA F6 TSV (cca 0,4Euro/m) Z prof cca 0,7Euro/m, Belden 7-proX 1Euro/m Fracarro VAT 17 cca 0,6Euro/m, SPAUN SPOAX 95E cca 2 Euro/m Belden 1694A cca 1,5Euro/m :-santa3:-HoHo:-hny [/QUOTE]
