HD100, huh? I'd be surprised if they use that as it's about 2.5 times the price, but good on them if they do. Wonder what their install guidelines are...

Going by VM installs I've seen, steel core/paper shield RG6 is the norm - crap. But I guess 'whatever's on the van is the best for the job'

As for screw-ons, they certainly shouldn't be fitted by professionals. I can understand why customers would use 'em though.
