House Move - Sky Coaxial cable not long enough

TheWaterboy · 2010-07-15 10:41:42

I recently moved houses and bought my sky box and package with me. The new house has a sky dish and all the cables. However the cable coming out of the wall is simply too short to connect everything up correctly...I tried pulling at it but no luck.... Sky told me when Im moving that if I had any problems give them a call…

Sky told me when Im moving that if I had any problems give them a call and they would send someone around....The Sky works but I really need to get the cable made longer...Can I do it myself or can I get Sky to send someone around and if so do they charge me for this.

you can use extension and a cheap "f-connector socket barrel" to connect existing cable to short cable to Sky box.
