I am finally moving out of the dark ages of a digibox and getting a sky+ box installed.
At present I have my satellite and digital TV aerial coax cables running in the same channel beneath the plaster. It also has the phone cable in there as well. I managed to squeeze the satellite co-ax down there when I moved into the house- it was a pig of a job.
The TV aerial cable is the old brown type and is around 6.5mm overall thickness (same as the satellite cable).
I never use the TV aerial cable as the TV has built in Freesat (which I never use either)!
Could I use the existing TV aerial cable as the second feed to my Sky+ box? It would only be the 2 metre length that is running inside the plaster.
I don't want them dropping a cable down my outside wall and drilling through if I can avoid it.
