Interestingly enough, I moved the Myth backend to it's usual home, in the basement, right next to the incoming cable signal and replaced that 25' run that I had going to where it was temporarily with a smaller, say 10' run (of RG-59 so still room for improvement) and my SNR at the HVR-1600, even after all of the splitters is now "015c" or 34.8 dB. I'm still going to go replacing all of that RG-59 with shorter, custom made lengths of RG6 cables. I can't go "too short" when making those can I or would even a 6-12 inch cable be perfectly fine? I'm thinking of the runs between that last 4 way splitter and the tuners in the Myth backend. b. --------------enigACB1966D9C54569E7EEB4539 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk+cbWgACgkQl3EQlGLyuXD2agCgnyBGnwnc763jgX+/QkwguM9s LXAAoMUTqQIHOQHpV6vhRRQQCKOK53iI =N48X -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enigACB1966D9C54569E7EEB4539--
