I currently have a loft aerial feeding 5 TV's. I live high up on a hill and have virtually line of site the the Transmitter which is about 8 miles away. Originally I had an active splitter powered via one of the Coax leads but was getting pixelation across a couple of the TV's, namely a Panasonic and an LG 24". Both of which actually use the same base TV platform (Not that that matters, but noticed different manufacturers but effectively the same TV). I removed the Active splitter and put in a passive splitter as I believed the signal was too string. Generally this did improve things, but the Panasonics and LG still suffer the odd pixelation so I'm thinking the signal is still too strong.
I'm thinking of buying a adjustable attenuator. All connections are F Type at the aerial and passive splitter.
Can I install the Attenuator between the aerial and the splitter thus reducing the signal strength across the board? Would this have the desired affect?
Thanks.
