I need 200' of coax for SWM at my daughters. As a test I hooked up 304' of various RG6 coax lengths in the Phoenix area where the DTV sat signals are 90+. None of this coax had SWM quality connectors or barrel connectors. In 4 weeks the HR44 receiver hung twice.
Questions: With better RG6 connectors and solid copper core what are my chances of good reception in the Seattle area with RG6? Should I get say 2x 100' lengths of coax?
Both the Portland and Seattle spot beam maps show a strong signal in the Seattle area.
