go to CC... around here... they still have those @home cable start up kits for a penny. they come with 20ft coax cables and splitters. just use the splitters as repeaters. buy 3 kits and u will have 60ft of coax for less then a nickel. hey u said cheap right? :D

I already have two cables hooked together with a splitter. I just want 1 continuous cable.

buythe cables at home depot and a crimp kit. after u r done, return the crimp kit. ethical? no. cheap? yes.

And I can't stress enough the importance of connector quality/type... I would say compression connectors would work the best, but they're kind of overkill and IIRC you need a special crimper.

DON'T use twist-on connectors.
