Just moved the mother-in law into sheltered accomodation. The building has a communal aerial, which appears at a socket in the lounge. The previous occupant had added a fly lead from the socket, which ends up next to a length of 75ohm Coax. This runs for about 4 metres outsied to the bedroom. Obviously there used to be some sort of splitter or amplifier, but this has been removed. Any suggestions as to what I need to replace it with? Will be feeding CRT TV,STB and VCR and a portable in the bedroom. Flat is in Bexhill - TN40....


Usually it's

Wall----> Video Aerial IN

Video Aerial/RF Out---->Telly/Tellies.

That way the bedroom telly can watch what's on the video. You probably don't need an amplifier, just a reasonably good quality splitter to feed two tellies.

I haven't been down since this posting, but brother in law has played around and connected both TV's, neither of which properly and the STB not at all. Obviously needs an amplifier. Any suggestions, please?
