I would expect any issues to be the result of 1) noisy switching power 
supplies,  2) noise from the downlink electronics, and 3) common mode 
coupling on the coax  (both TX and RX). and I would expect them to be 
easily solved by winding turns around ferrite cores.  I had DirecTV in 
Chicago, and never had any issues, with antennas and DirecTV downlead in 
close proximity (5-25 ft). I don't remember if I did anything with chokes.
