    Thinking of installing a sat system and lokking for some advice on cabling etc

    May have to put it on the chimney to avoid trees. I am concerned that me or whoever has to mount the sat on chimney will move roof tiles, thereby causing a leak, especially in vicinity of chimney, would I be made to let anyone up on the roof

    Whats the best wat to run the cables, either from the chimney
    do not use the fire and never will, (have a wall mounted heater which does not need a flue), so thinking of down the chimney/flue

    Or imagine the dish is mounted at eaves level, is it poss to run the cables betwen outer walls and plaster board

    Thanks

    Don't do this, water will run down the cable into the house.

    Can you not mount it on the chimney and run the cable down to the front of the roof and under the eaves into the attic. Thats what I always try and do.
