I was taught when I fitted satellites dishes that u leave the outa braided on just twist it around the outa sleeve so when u tighten it up it would grip better and do the same with TV aerial cable too
Thanks I've been dreading this I remember before that I thought the copper netting had to be connected as well and it turned into a nightmare and a mess Now I see how simple it is !!
For some reason this method works better than using the copper braid like most other tutorials. Any experts have an explanation? Other method didn't work, this one does.
Ah ! Finally ! I've been trying to fix this fricking thing for ages ! Youtubing everything to find out how to get that stupid silver thing to stay on the cable - With no special tools either - Thank you ! I think it might just stay put
yep that would work, as long as you fit the right connectors onto the cable. Traditionally satellite uses twist on f connectors, and aerial use push on (like the ones used in this video)
This is not correct when you remove the copper braids you're basically reducing the quality if the signal and when you remove them completely like you did, you won't get any signal.
As a qualified electrician (but not a TV engineer) we were always taught to use the Copper braid aswell...not cut it off...I have done hundreds of these and connected directly to the aerial....and the TV socket outlet which both have clamps to clamp the braid....never done it any other way.....by cutting off the braid as shown here I can't see that it would work correctly....never seen that done before....I think it's wrong....
2 things, I've done thousands and never used a stripping tool, most folk don't own one and nobody needs one. That braid has a job, don't cut it all off.
Man this guy really knows his stuff. Great tutorial, great editing and great music choice. What an absolute legend.
The sarcasm👌
Pure sarcasm
I left braiding on like the comment said and our magic eye for sky did not work removed braiding and eye worked. Thanks for your video.

Agree completely.

No talking straight to work great video!! Thankyou it help
I officially love this man. No, seriously.... I LOVE HIM
Thanks,saved me paying for an election.
Or electrician😊

It's got to be neat, not touching parts it shouldn't touch.

Thank you for sharing this. Simple and easy way to do it. 😁😁😁
Very helpful, thank you 🙂
Good luck getting a signal through that. Do not follow this. Leave the copper braid intact.
Thank you 😍
Would 3c2v coax cable work to connect an internal satellite socket to sky box?
yep that would work, as long as you fit the right connectors onto the cable. Traditionally satellite uses twist on f connectors, and aerial use push on (like the ones used in this video)
Hi mate, great video just wanted to ask where do you get the wire cutter/stripper from and what is it called please?
Hi, give us a call on 0161 430 3849 and quote that you saw the cable stripper on UA-cam. We can get one sent out to you.
@@satsecure nice video. Can I also get the wire cutter/stripper?
what is the benefit of these small wires??
Great video, not much drama all straight to the point. 🎉
What's the name of the red product you cut the wire? Also, is the copper cap you attached ?
At last. A clear close up of what to do
GOOD VIDEO👍
The idea is very well
GOOD VIDEO
Very nice👍👍
How not to fit a coax plug
Thanks!
Top man
This is not correct when you remove the copper braids you're basically reducing the quality if the signal and when you remove them completely like you did, you won't get any signal.
Then why does this method work when the 'proper' method didn't?
@@RationalMorality because it becomes hit miss with so little braid as left in the video.

Too messy. I've replaced such work many times. @@RationalMorality
Thanks a lot
You took out the wire? Goodluck with static
He did leave a little bit, I think it touches were need to be touch.
I think the connection is not very correct. The braids shouldn't be remove hundred percent. Beside this every other procedure is good.
Didn't not Work For me :(
shan shan so it worked then?
GREAT
It still doesnt works
Well at least I know we're I've been going wrong I've been putting the 4 prong thing the wrong way lol

When does school start?
What a useless video, I bet he wouldn’t get a signal through that cable as he’s removed to much outer braid/wire.😡😡😡
Copper braid or the foil?
wrong
Wrong. You don't remove the copper braid.
I didn't yupyip yup
You should put a bend in the solid copper wire so it definitely touches the sides of the connector. A real Pro would solder the tip too.
The idea is very well
