Try not to split before the inside unit. You really need to use the amplifier. If you need to split it to go back outside then install and dual coax faceplate. One port coming in and one going back outside. Thats how I have in set up because my signal was originally split outside to go to different floors. But I had 2 ports coming into one floor so i used 1 for in and the other to go back out to the other floor.

chances are the splitter is blocking or has reduced power supply to antenna. if the red power light on antenna is not on or dim might be a clue... since inside controller supplies electrical current to amplifier (built into antenna) do not recommend your setup.

we used a power pass spitter for all antenna we sell, old spitter dont work good,, and some tv are different and get more or less channel per room

I have Dish Network connectyed to 1 input & my cable TV system connected to the other. I get great reception on my TV. If one connects multiple TV sets to the output with splitters, the signal may very well be degraded.

My TV is analog and I pulled signal with no converter box. But the antenna wasn't great for my area, which could have been a geographical issue, but a cheap $10 pair of rabbit ears worked best for me.

do you have it set up through your cable or dish? i don't and it works just fine. i didn't want to go through all the re-connecting because ia can never get it the same. i just put it through the game poet on the side of my tv.

If it was for local channels only you could have skiped the converter box and connected stright into your new TV. Try this first.

Tom - what is your question? If it's a matter of wiring more than one TV to the antenna,, you need a coax splitter. Hope this helps...

You need to remember to use the TV's channel 3 or 4 input from your cable when switched to that input; those will still be there with snow when you switch to the off-air (antenna) position. It's worked out quite well for me.

Same thing happened to me. It actually took out my DirecTV signal and had to restore the link between the unit and the TV. One one peripheral device ended up working, so I sent it back to Amazon. Refund processed quickly.

Well they got us this time as they aren't sending a signal that a TV without a cable company Digital Converter can understand. The DTV signal input is for a video camera with a DTV output (higher resolution, almost HDTV) that your TV can read where what they are sending is in no way like that and the signal is way higher frequency than the normal TV signals. Sorry but you will need a converter from the Cable Company. I worked with TV's and tried everything to get something but they won!

I did just that. With the regular leaf I could not get my PBS station in Detroit at all. I purchased this amplified version and ran it through a 1 in and 4 out splitter, and all TV's in the house get that channel that the regular one couldn't get. AMAZING! No cable saves me over $300 a year.

I don't know how else you'd do it. I'd recommend amplifier(s) as well. My splitter is approx. 10' from the antenna and splits to 2 TVs, which are approx. 40 and 50 feet from the splitter. Each TV has an RCA 10dB video signal amplifier 50-900 MHz model VH100 (Walmart, approx. $13) - works great!

I bought this TV for a second home. The Condo Unit comes with analog and digital cable. When I do the Channel Setup Scan ( both Analog and Digital), I only pick up the Analog. I was told that I need a convertor. I also bought a small Sony LCD, and when I did the Setup. it picked up both Analog and Digital and was able to view the HD Channels. Any suggestions??

Mine goes to a 3 way splitter, two TV's were within 6 feet of splitter and were good, the third was 30 feet of coax away from splitter and no signal was getting to that TV so I put a pre amp between splitter and that 30 feet of coax and then that TV worked perfectly

You can use splitter. Let me tell you I have returned this device it was not worth the price and signals were very weak.

Check your dish's signal strength - a booster isn't going to solve your problem IMHO. I have DirecTV, so speaking from experience. Perhaps your dish isn't aligned properly (it happens) or something is blocking the signal or the cable ends from the dish to the multiswitch are loose. I have runs to multiple TV's, one of which is over 50' - no signal loss at all. Also check the connections from the channel box to your TV, if this comes loose, you can get a weaker signal. Hope this helps.

You need to start over again, change the hookup. Mine has been playing now for almost two years. I think that you have everything hooked up wrong. Try this: First, you need an antenna. I use a Philips antenna. Plug the antenna into ("antenna in"), on the box. Now your cable or coaxial cord goes into the back of your TV and plug that into ("TV Out"), on the cable box. Now you need to go to menu and set up your TV...I think that the instructions should come in the box that your cable box came in.. I hope this works for you. Let us know if this works for you....If all else fails, you may need another box, they should exchange it for you, just follow instructions that I sent you...

2 possibles come to mind right away.. 1 is you might need to raise it up a little higher. 2 you might be too far from the station. you can check what you should be getting here http://transition.fcc.gov/mb/engineering/dtvmaps/
