[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1015533, member: 176704"] FWIW, right-angle connections at UHF+ frequencies will always be a problem because of signal reflections at the point of the physical direction change - no real solution AFAIK and so probably you need to get the very best (read expensive!) connectors - alternatively, try rearranging the kit to reduce the angle at which the cables approach the boxes, OR use shorter & thinner (and thus more flexible) "lower grade" patch cables over the last few inches/cm. TBH I therefore agree with rolfw in that I don't think that the latter "solution", with a "few" very short extra bits of (decent - but I would use PF100 or similar!) sat coax and a couple of properly fitted F-c0nnectors each, would make a huge difference to the levels of signals that get to the boxes - so that would be my approach.
