What distributor to use?

[mickys86]

Hi guys. We usually only do the electrics and run coax points but for te job at work I've said I'll connect the tv system up. I've just walked out of maplin with the guy in there saying digital and analogue so many times my head hurts.

I'll tell you what I want to do,
We have all the coax points wired back to a cupboard. I have wired the sky dish back to the cupboard with two cables and I have a cable coming from the loft where theres an additional aerial.

They want to have sky in the main living area, distributed off to 4 bedrooms. They also want to be able to have the option to tune the freeview in the televisions that they put into the bedrooms.
What distributor would be best? At home I have a click scolmore one but that took ages to get delivered and tbh is a little bit overkill.
Cheers in advance for your advice
Michael

Hi Micky, There is a good selection of quality distribution amplifiers on the following site. I'm sure you will find one that meets your requirements. Just don't purchase the Philex model(s), I know from bitter experience that they are poor performers.
Indoor Amplifiers / Boosters from TV Aerials Online Shop

It's a dark art but in future suggest you run 5 from dish/aerial to cupboard and 2 coax and 2 cat5 to all TV points put incoming BT/Virgin into cupboard master socket. then you have somewhere to start from (3 sat grade reconomended for Distributed box locations..... Oh and USE WF100 or better no Airspace! or Alu braid bootlace......
