New member Username: ChapmanPost Number: 6 Registered: Nov-07 | Hi, will this same setup work for cable tv and satellite, instead of the OTA feed? The photo illustrated cable/antenna, but I just want to make sure it will work for the cable. Thanks |
Silver Member Username: AbjPost Number: 608 Registered: Feb-06 | yes it will work with cable. just oonnect the cable to Ant. side ... This is the way I have hook up to now. I use it when the dish is down ...or bad weather and losing signal ... |
