Can sattlite cable be used on high gain tv aerial?.

[lavenders19]

I have lots of spare satellite cable. can this be used on a tv aerial without any problems?

[Matt Beard]

There shouldn't be a problem - you want relatively low loss 75-ohm coax cable. As long as your sat cable is such (and it should be) then no problems.

Yes, I have just changed my ordinary 75 ohm coax for satellite 75 ohm coax, and improved my signal markedly.

Yes. Provided it is rated for exterior use, then it is superior in every respect and has a matching impedence. I just replaced by downlead with CT100 and it is for UHF terrestrial.
