You should not include coax with 100 Ohm impedance within sat equipment.
The reflections will decrease a lot of signal strength.  On the other side:
to hold the signal strength and minimize receiving high frequncy EM smog
you may choose a high quality 75 Ohm cable (have a look onto the specs, as
less the loose, normaly massured in db per meter, at high freqencies as better
the coax cable).  And do not forget, good shieldings means all parts
of the equipment (LNB, connectors, cable, PC case and it leadin/outs).
