They do run rather hot. But when they work, they usually do the trick. You power it from the TV end and the inline amp has a blocking cap so you don't put DC on the whole system. Theoreticaslly, that is what you need. I think you should put one amp every 50 feet but that may not be possible for you. What kind of coax has 10 dB loss per 50 feet, and at what frequency? Those RS amps have no equalization, so the low channels would overlaod the front end, and the high channels would still be snowy if you need more than one or two.. -- You can't have a sense of humor, if you have no sense. |
