Phew..

Thanks Paul/Ian for the info

I was begining to wonder why Ma**ins were charging a lot more for
what initially looked like being the same product...

I'll stick with this stuff, as I think it will help me with the poor
quality signal we have round here, any loss will ruin the tv picture!

Thanks again

Daniel
