It appears Tim, used the alu foil stuff withreasonable success. I purchased
the copper "for digital satellite from B&Q at the time....also
Maplins, and
possibly City Electrical Factors may do it.

You may want to look at the ukha_d archives

for further discussions on
this.

Your Sky installer will thank you.....don't forget the phone socket....if
the box requires to be connected as part of your deal, not sure how tidy
installers are.

Thanks for that, any idea if I can get the copper stuff in high street
shops? Will electric factors stock this?

I used this....then went back and did it with copper sheathed ct100 (copper
instead of alu sheilding) just because of the possible losses

Some info here:
http://www.your-book.co.uk/cable.htm
  Type A being CT100 Type C being
simialr to B&Q stuff (If I remember correctly)
