Hi all, new to this forum which I found via the gift of Google.
Basically I've jumped in at the deep end, offering to help someone out who's in the process of renovating a guesthouse. The job in hand is to provide freeview to 16 sets (gulp).
My previous experience in this type of field, was working for a cable company, therefore I will admit to knowing very little indeed about how all this works, but they asked me to help out nonetheless.
After a bit of reading up and looking at a few posts on here, I'm hoping that I've picked the right components for the job and was just hoping for a little advice to make sure I'm going in the right direction. I've sourced the all the components from the same supplier (Maplin) to try and keep things simple, and would be grateful if anyone out there could give me a yes or no, or tell me if I'm going the wrong way with anything. Any help would be gratefully received.
Basically i'm looking at mounting a 71 Element High Gain Aerial with a 2 way masthead amplifier, down to 2x KR20W 8 way amplifiers, then running a line to each tv point. Also looking at fitting one of these Scart freeview receivers behind each set.
Would this setup work, or am I completely barking mad even thinking about it ? Would it be ok to fit wall outlet plates etc...?
Many thanks for reading the thread as it's giving me a headache just thinking about it.
Mike.
