Can I use the Channel Plus 2512DC+IR to connect to a Lava HD 2605 antenna powered through a RG6 cable and use the other port to an amplifier and cable

I am not a technician but since this unit is both a splitter and combiner it should work but I am not certain what you are trying to do. Split or combine? What is the source? The Lava antenna and then splitting off to a cable going somewhere and the other port to an amplifier? Or, are you trying to combine the Lava antenna and the amplifier/cable into one combined signal? I used this unit to combine two antennas pointed in slightly different directions and then routed the combined output to an amplifier and then on to connections throughout the house. It worked perfectly for this and it is one of the few units available that works both directions. I have not used it as a splitter so I cannot give a direct report on how well it works that way except to say that it functions VERY well as a combiner.

No, it only has a matching transformer so you can use RG-6 cable. You would need something like this 100FT F-f RG6 Patch Cable Blk Premium Retail Blister Pack plus a rotor and rotor wire, antenna amplifier, splitters if you have more than one TV, a tripod roof mount, two sections of steel mast, a grounding block, ground wire and a grounding rod or water pipe ground attachment.

You could if you know how to attach a new PL259 coax connector...that is problem one...problem two is that sometimes the length of the cable is actually part of the antenna design so it may not work quite as well...my suggestion is to just roll it up neatly and tape or tie tag it...

It depends on the mounting hardware supplied with 2605. This mast has 1.25" outer diameter, so please verify the mounting brackets/u-bolts that come with the antenna.

I'm assuming you mean VHF? Doesn't need any additions. I currently receive VHF channels 2, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, and 13 with no problems. Channels 2, 6, and 8 are coming from a distance of 70 miles, but I am also using a Winegard LNA-200 Boost XT Preamp to help pull them in and also to compensate for my long (70') cable run.

If you can supply ac power directly to this amplifier, it can replace your existing one. You cannot feed power to this amp over a coaxial cable. Whether it will help your channel reception or not is uncertain, but most likely it won't help that much, if at all. You may find it more productive to reposition your antenna for better reception, if that is possible. Good luck. I hope you find a satisfactory solution.

I haven't tried that cable on those models. You might want to check some of the Amateur Radio sites such as QRZ.com. It's always a good source of info.

You will need RG-8 cable and a barrel connector for PL-259. 2PCS RF connector adapter PL259 - PL259 / female-female50ft Rg8x Coax UHF (Pl259) Male/male 50 Ohm Antenna Cable

Yes you need to add a 300/75 ohm convertor in order to use rg59 cable. Yes the convertor is included with the antenna. Everything is included with your antenna except the pole that you mount the antenna to!!1

I am using RG6 coax and have had it installed for 8 years. RG6 has twice the bandwidth of RG59. I've dug a little on the Internet and I saw reference of using RG6 to connect the antenna to the radio unit. My recommendation is to use RG6.

Use the 2 outside connections. It doesn't matter which antenna you plug into each of the connections.

Yes..... I have 2 antennas with preamp signal booster on both of them. No channels without preamp.

Here you go (if you haven't bought one already): MPD Digital smaF/pl259f SMA Female to UHF SO239 PL259 Female RG58 Adapter Cable, 3-feetExact setup that I have and it worked great (until it got taken out by a branch. Upgrading to a flexible antenna now).

Yes. I am also wiring for Directv. They require RG6, which this is. Have fun!

I just used rg6 connectors and it worked fine. I have since bought the new type of connectors that the cable guys use but haven't use any yet.

Yes, you can, for example, use a very high quality mono amp for the most important channel, the center, leaving more power for the other channels. All channels have pre out availability. The perfect system would use a 3 channel (example Bryston) amp for L-C-R and have all the entire receiver's power for the remaining channels. I have done this and it is fabulous. Barry

You bet it works for that! I'm 40+ miles away from the DTV transmitter sites. Have a CM4228 antenna in the attic. Been using an EDA-2100 to boost the signals. Works great! In fact, I just cascaded a second amp to improve our Fox TV affiliate signal just a bit. So I have two of these amps essentially on series. No overload, and they work great in this configuration.
