What Antenna Gear Do I Need ?

eirman · 2018-03-19 15:09:56

I'm just north of Ardee - My antennas are pointed at Clermont Carn & Divis. My masthead amp and/or diplexer packed in over the winter. (I don't know if there is a power supply as the cabling cannot be traced). I'm going to fit new cables and equipment to the mast. This is what I think I need ..... What do you think?…

Re. the diplexer choice: power pass (obviously) needs to be on the leg leading to the masthead amp, so leg 1 if it's on the Divis aerial.

I reckon you mean this type Thurston
Input 1: Channel 21-37

Is 25dB too high a gain for Divis from my location?
