No reason to have a join on a new install!! + joins should be well avoided on digital.

Also one joint wont make any difference on signal if its made correctly,after all its a joint at the box and at the dish.
In the perfect world no joints is ideal, but perfection is rare

Copter, throwing the stuff in the bin isn't a problem but when I used to work for BT, I'd never have considered leaving that mess!
DRGL said:You obviously know nothing about signal reflection and loss. There is no reason what so ever for a new install to have a joint in the cable,nor should it have one. Stick a digi meter on the cable prior to the join and then after-see what the difference is

Do you run the wire back to the dish?
Ive moved dozens, negigible loss and perfect pq
