need help to connect tv to aerial

[Ben B]

You connect the aerial into the aerial in socket on the booster and then connect an aerial lead to the output socket and the other end into the TV.

As Ben says the booster isn;t designed to transmit the signal via the mains cabling but instead it boosts the signal over co-axial cable. with or without the booster you still need the co-ax..

[kishp]

so u cant just have one lead goin from the booster to tv

if im readin it rite u need a lead and a indoor aerial ? for it to work

[Kymmy]

Yep, you need an antenna, a bit of coa-ax and a TV to recieve TV channels

If the antenna is weak (indoor or a fringe area) or it's a long co-ax run then the booster you show goes between the coax to the antenna and another piece of coax to the TV and amplifies the signal

BUT they can;t perform miracles and boost a really bad signal

[nodrogd]

The aerial amplifier you are looking at does not replace a cable, it boosts the signal in the cable. We have had this discussion with the OP already in another thread.

In short there is not yet a way to wirelessly transmit high quality video to a large screen TV. Ofcom have hinted at licensing this type of product in future, but it is not yet off the drawing board.

A direct connection from the TV to aerial is the only option.

would have been cheaper and better ( if only 1 tv is need ) a female coax to male ( coax meters needed ) and male coax plug at end to plug in tv/freeview box . u drop some db`s but would be low.

Indeed we have, and I see no reason for there to be two threads on what is basically the exact same issue.

Threads merged.

Is the TV on the outside wall?
