If it works you you, great! But signal levels vary as RVs travel, weather varies even if you don't move. So consider better quality coax and connectors. Also the coax supplies DC to power the LNBs so solid copper core should be used.
As a test I used all of my RG6 coax none of which had 3 HZ connectors or barrel connectors and connected it to my DTV dish. 304' total and it worked great. This was in the Phoenix area near the center of the spot beam and there was no or very slight change in the HR44 receiver signals. Clear weather.
Recorded 5 channels at once and worked great for a month. :) Did I mention that the receiver only hung twice? :( That's twice total in 4 years. Could it be the coax I wonder. :@
