[Scan-DC] Signal splitting

Sat, 16 Nov 2002 12:29:16 -0500

    If you think you have a problem go to my webpage and check out my tower
with pre-amped antennas at 100-125 ft.  I have about 10 150 ft.
lengths of RG-6 coax coming in my radio monitoring room.  Some RF cables go
directly into certain receivers dedicated to specific monitoring ranges.
Others input to an 8 way splitters and then into 6 Radio Shack A/V push
button signal selection boxes.  They were designed for video switching to
VCRs/TVs, etc. but they work well for being able to switch various antennas
to scanners/receivers very quickly.  If you have a good antenna system and
use a mast mounted pre-amp such as the RS VHF/FM/UHF TV model, the splitter
loses are insignificant and not noticeable.  I have some extra new signal
switch boxes.  If interested you can email me.
