I want to re-route our existing TV aerial cable which presently drops from the aerial on the central chimney down the roof and front of the house. Rather than try to sling the cable over the roof to hang down the back I plan to draw it into the attic and make an extension. We're in a weak signal area (Reading) which is not even suposed to be able to get Freeview (though we can - I've tried it). To keep losses down and make termination easier (than bloody BL plugs!) I'm thinking of using 'satellite' type cable (as used by NTL^H^H^HVirgin) and F plugs.
Does this seem like a good idea? And what type of cable? Some F plugs are specced to fit "PH100, PF100, RG6 and CT100" cable: what's the difference between them? Has CT100 been superseeded by H109F and WC100?
And what about twist-on connectors versus crimp connectors, and if crimps are the bee's knees what sort of crimp tool?
