[QUOTE="PaulR, post: 906149, member: 176256"] There's a mix-up of terminology here. The normal way of talking about multiswitches is to quote the actual number of inputs, not the satellite positions. I deliberately said satellite inputs to try to see what's what. Thus: a multiswitch for 1 satellite position has 4 inputs for that satellite, a 2 satellite position has 8 inputs, etc. From what you're saying you have a 5 input which I take to be a single satellite position. The fifth input is exactly what you're looking for, an input for terrestrial frequencies. You connect up your TV aerial (possibly through an attenuator if needed) here. You can also feed in FM and DAB frequencies with the TV frequencies if you have a suitable combiner. Regarding 4G, many new aerials have a 4G filter built in as well as a tailored frequency response to suit the new, smaller, frequency allocation. [/QUOTE]
