Purchasing shotgun cable
Hi all,
I need to do a bit of modding for my current sky+ setup and need to purchase some shotgun cable.
Where is the best place to get some from, satbuyer or one of the many other outlets?
What sort of spec does it need to be and is it all the same size (diameter wise) as sky fit?
For example on satbuyer there are two sorts of cable, WF65 and WF100. Does it make much difference if your slightly over 20m of cable run?
I am aware that the f connectors are slightly smaller at the cable entry side.
Thanks.

I always look on eBay , as you mentioned the shotgun cable F ends are a different size to normal F ends
WF65 will fit through an existing 10mm hole that you are likely to have in the wall already
WF100 is the standard "single" cable, each cable will be 7mm in thickness so if there are 2 feeds then a larger hole will be required
WF65 will be more than adequate for the vast majority of runs
Hope this helps
