Cheap Antenna Extension Cord?

[jegrant]

Where in the world can I find a cheaply priced extension cable for satellite radio antennas? My bedroom is on the north side of my house, yet I have satellite radio (XM and Sirius) antennas mounted on the south side for optimal reception. (The Sirius antenna, even after trying many positions, will not receive reliable reception on the north side, possibly due to a large tree.)

Everywhere I have looked online, and even in stores, the extension cords are so expensive, it is cheaper to buy an entire antenna than to buy the cord. I don't understand this. It is just a cable, albeit with a proprietary connector.

So - anyone have ideas where to get one under $20 or $25?

Thanks! The one at TSS Radio looks very promising. The best I had found previously was a 25 foot extension for nearly (or over) $50.
