Viewsonics 8 Port Cable TV Amplifier with Passive Return Review

Viewsonics 8 Port Cable TV Amplifier with Passive Return
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These particular Viewsonics amplifiers have been discontinued for over three years, this product is really old. According to Viewsonics it does not have 6000v surge protection. Plus the noise profile is noisier than other amps you can buy for about the same money.

75 to 300 Ohm Matching Transformer Review

75 to 300 Ohm Matching Transformer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These were EXTREMELY cheap compared to the $3-$10 each I found around town.I ordered 10 to make several digital antennas (don't buy one at the store when you can build one for $5 that works 10x better).One of the transformers twisted coax connector loose when I connected the wire to it, but it still works.They all work just fine, so I'm happy with them.These are great for hooking up just about any coax output component to a very old TV or as I used them, to build an antenna - check out makezine.tv or just google it.Looks weird, but it works amazingly better than a powered name-brand antenna I purchased from a large department store (to remain nameless, but rhymes with Ball-Cart).

RiteAV - Coax F-Type Right Angle Adapter Review

RiteAV - Coax F-Type Right Angle Adapter
Average Reviews:

I never knew something like these even existed.I thought I had maybe come up with my own invention ;)I have an omnimount 3-shelve wall unit, and the cable jack is right underneath it.I thought to myself, "it sure would be nice if the coax cable didn't have to come out from the wall, then about a foot out, turn around, and go back up the wall behind the wall shelves. What if there was such thing as a 90 degree adapter?"So I called the hardware stores in the area and nobody had them. Amazon came through for me though.

In fact, almost everything that uses coax cables in my home benefits from having a 90 degree adapter at either the wall or box.

I can't believe these things are so difficult to find. I searched every big box and electronics store in town and they had none.Found it easily on Amazon and ordered.We had installed an under-counter TV in the kitchen, and there was not enough clearance in the back to plug the coax cable in. This handy little device solved the problem. It screws on the cable-in port and makes a 90-degree turn to give you plenty of breathing room to hook up the cable.It only protrudes about 1/4 inch from the end of the cable-in port.

CE LABS 6001 Prograde 1 GHz Bi-Directional RF Amplifier Review

CE LABS 6001 Prograde 1 GHz Bi-Directional RF Amplifier
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am using this for my CATV that has three splitters after it. The incoming signal was not very strong and after the third splitter, the picture was terrible on one tv.After installing the RF amp, it was beautiful. The CE 6001 has 20 db of gain (more than most other RF amps). I ended up turning the gain down a little (a very useful feature although you need a very small screwdriver to do it) to be sure it did not overload the front end of my tv off the first splitter. I had an RS version (15-2505) previously and it did ok but added a little noise on the weakest signals. That was all plastic and certainly not weatherproof. In contrast, the CE 6001 is a nice, sturdy sealed aluminum case and I could not see any evidence of additional noise on even the weakest channels.

I was frustrated that my cable company dropped one of our PBS channels and bought a digital converter for one of my analog TV sets.This A/B switch makes it easy to switch back and forth between cable and antenna.Cost for this item, less than $10.00 w/shipping; not having to pay Comcast additional monthly fees for PBS access - PRICELESS!

I bought this to mount in a "structured wiring box" that I was putting together. I used to to patch all my RG6 runs from around the house in a neat & clean row.

Its built very well and all the pieces, connectors, and parts appear to be of quality. I've had it setup for over a month and everything works great through it.

Ever since my cable company installed digital cable in my house I have had picture problems.The analog pictures were grainy and half of the digital pictures didn't come in.They just said they would arrive shortly but never did.Numerous calls to the cable company failed to come up with a permanent fix.So I decided to take matters in my own hands.Other boosters made things worse.When I saw that this one worked with digital as well as analog I decided to give it a try.I first hooked it up from the cable box to the vcr and got no improvement.So I tried hooking it up where the signal first came in before the cable reciever and it worked beautifully.Analog pictures are clearer than ever and all the digital pictures come in.No more "Please Wait" screens.I am mad that my stupid cable company refused to do this but I am thrilled to finally have what I pay for!Great product!
