The rule of thumb is 100 ft. In practice, 150 to 200 feet has worked for me in a pinch without any line amp. Have gone 400+ feet on RG-11 with no problem point to point. In large buildings in downtown Chicago we use stacker systems and RG-11 and line amps to go 50-60 stories. Also depends on which dish you use and how much gain it has to start.

Does any know the max distance you can run RG6 Quad from the dish to the box?
