Hi
I would like to connect my hi-fi's tuner to my TV's communial aerial
socket on the wall with the aid of some sort of coaxial splitter, is
this possible? On the rear of the hi-fi are the aerial connectors which
appear to accept strands of exposed wire by pressing and releasing a
small lever. The five connections are split between 300ohm, 75ohm and
AM. Whats the best way to get a decent reception from the tuner?
Thanks for any advice.

Do you have Radio Shacks in the UK? I'd just go to them or someone
similar, and let them provide you with a splitter and the appropos
cables. (Enter "splitter" at the RS site and it comes up with 35
matches.)
