Anyone know if a passive or active multicoupler is better. Looking at
the Stridsberg offerings. Passive is much cheaper but not sure about
signal loss. Thanks.


The actives will make up for the signal power being halved in a 1 to 2
but they cost more money. If you want to hear a signal that is just
above the receiver noise floor before the splitter you might not be
able to hear it after the power is split through the passive splitter.
Weak signals through the passive splitter will sound a little noisier
depending on your radio. If you want a 1 to 4 you should consider an
active unit.
