Why would you need these power supplies?

These power supplies do the same job as the P1285/1, above, but they have an internal splitter feeding two output sockets to feed two separate television systems. This is handy if you are sharing an aerial with a neighbour or if you need to run a cable to a second TV. They can supply up to 85 ma of current and are fine for the WB1214 masthead amplifier, above and our DAT45 and DAT75 aerials if they are equipped with an MRD (See Televes aerial page).

Why would you use a masthead amplifier?

1. You would normally use it where the signal provided by the aerial is slightly too low to feed a long cable and it is not possible to improve it by replacing the aerial with a better type. You would also use it where the signal is adequate but where the cable is picking up interference and can not be replaced with a better type of cable. (In the latter case you would fit an attenuator at the far end of the cable. This will reduce the signal to its original level AND reduce the level of interference.

2. You would use it in conjunction with a splitter or a PSU incorporating a splitter, to boos the signal before it is reduced by splitting.

It is important to install the amplifier fairly close to the aerial because the cable between the aerial and amplifier can pick up interference, especially from mains wiring in the loft and from passing traffic. The amplifier will boost this interference so you should minimise the length of cable AND you should use double-shielded cable between the aerial and the amplifier. It is also recommended that you use double-shielded cable for the down feed from the amplifier.

IMPORTANT: When a power supply is used to feed an amplifier upstairs, any wall plate MUST be a non-isolated type, otherwise the aerial signal will get through but the DC power won't. An isolated (decoupled) plate is often marked with a capacitor symbol -||- so if yours has this (or obviously has capacitors fitted inside) it won't work. In addition, any "TV plug" between the PSU and amplifier must be soldered to the cable, otherwise a poor or intermittent connection is likely to interrupt viewing now or in the future.

SAFETY NOTICE: Electrical equipment which is installed in a loft or roof space should, wherever possible, be mounted on a brick or concrete surface. There have been rare instances of equipment catching fire so every precaution should be taken to prevent spread of fire. Powered equipment needs good ventilation and should be kept away from flammable materials such as cardboard, paper, plastic etc. Where a separate power supply is used, mount it on a wall with good ventilation. On no account lie it on a carpet or rug.

Cable for Digital satellite and TV

WF100 twin cable white

To ensure the best possible reception you would be wise to use double-screened coaxial cable. No point in buying the best aerial then using poor quality cable! Read more about this on page 8

WF100 cable is what Sky use for digital satellite installation.

Full reels and Short lengths (up to 30 metres) can be supplied.

Twin coaxial cable available. Clips available.


UHF Bandpass Filters

Before you buy a filter, please read our Technical Information.

Your Freeview TV broadcasts are often transmitted within a narrow group of UHF channel frequencies called a "Group". You can reduce or eliminate some types of interference by adding a "passband filter". It will help to minimise interference from other transmitters and from emergency services and mobile phone masts. This may be more important if you are using a wideband or log-periodic aerial. Filtering out unwanted signals will reduce the load on a masthead amplifier and will free up some UHF channels so that you can use them to pipe an RF signal from a satellite TV receiver, DVD and/or camera to other TV sets.

Normally, the filter will be fitted close to the aerial, before a masthead amplifier. However, if you have poor quality coaxial cable, which is picking up strong local interference, you may need to fit the filter (or an additional filter) at the bottom end of the cable. Uses 'F' plugs.

Note that there is some attenuation near the split point frequency: for example, if you want to receive channel 33, do NOT order 21-33 + 35-69 as 33, 34 and 35 will be significantly attenuated.

An aerial/aerial Diplexer is actually a filtered UHF aerial combiner which has two inputs for TV aerials that point in different directions and pick up signals from different channels. Normally you can't combine these signals because you would get "ghosting" or "cancellation" of signals. However, the diplexer allows through two specific bands of UHF channel frequencies while filtering out the opposite bands from each aerial.

It can also be used with a single aerial to filter out unwanted TV channels, leaving those UHF channel numbers free for you to use for your VCR, DVD, Satellite Receiver, Ondigital receiver RF output, Game Station, etc. Ask for free 75 Ohm resistor if you intend to use it this way!
