Cable length.

Does the signal degrade much on a longer cable. I have one cabledirct to a Polish satelitę box upstairs (13e).working Downstairs have a feed from same lnb through disecq to a Humax Foxsat. 28e signal is reading 85% but 13e not showing at all. The Cables to humax are longer. Would shortening the cables to Humax help¿

Can you say a bit more, if you have a direct cable to the box upstairs does that mean you have a multi output on the lnb for 13 e. To use the foxsat with a diseq switch is complex. Have a read here.
