    Running RG6 through conduit

    Ok, so if it is un-shielded, than there is the high potential for problems? If the 110v, 220v and RG6 lines are all shielded, could there still be a possibility for damage? What "damage" could occur? Fire? Electrical? Crop circles? Locusts? Snow in the middle of summer? What is the...

    First, I clearly understand the reason for codes and the purposes behind them. I misunderstood and didn't realize that the codes were building codes, but thought they were some type of installer codes/guidelines, and did not know if I was bound by those same codes if I am not a professional...

    Please Help with RG6/DirecTV Question!

    THANK YOU for the replies - at least I know it was his issue and not ours. What about the mounting of a dish to a metal building? He told me it was company policy not to install on metal, but couldn't tell me why. The tri-pod he wanted to sell me is metal, so I am not sure what the...
