[QUOTE="JasX, post: 687580, member: 349803"] yup will do, sry. Thx for taking time to reply :) ahhh kk, does adding DAB/FM/terresterial degrade the satellite signals much (ie if they wern't there on the same coax could you expect better satellite performance?), not entirely convinced they'd be used much.... also if they're present does that make filters essential on all outlets (ie could you plug an unfilteres cable straight into a sky/freesat box as if the others wern't there if you wern't interested in them? yeah thats a bit of an issue as new cabling for that leg will turn a 1 day install job into a 5 day job and no doubt add £££££ to the quote, external cabling is a no no owing to a grade 1 listed building next door which happens to be owned by the landlord.... Only works out vaguely economic if we can be confident of getting at lease 'basic' sky/freesat to work using the existing RG-6 wiring (but leave options/spare sockets open for a fiddly DIY job in future if individuals fancy it) thought so, is there anything to be careful of about where they plan tie the earth to? (ie separation from other earthed equipment to avoid noise being picked up) minimum? is that just to get the signal level up due to the larger number of end users? (and perhaps less of an issue with a mains powered multiswitch rather than line powered?) [/QUOTE]
