Hi Tom. Great videos! I only just found this. I looked up Webro WF100 and it seems to be the black TV aerial cable. What do you use for the satellite cable? Many thanks.
@@smartaerials Thank you for the quick reply. 4G ingress begins to form a big problem here in Belgium. There are few TV stations that use a frequency near by the freqencies of 4G cellphone networks, and this gives very disturb signals when using standard coax cables, even with the more expensive cables.
I bought some cable from toolstation which said it was "ct100" but on the drum it said "Gt 100", I can't complain however as it was made of pure copper and also had a copper shield. I bought this cable to replace a so called "professional" cable I bought at b and q, which appeared to be copper originally but turned out to be copper clad aluminium piece of rubbish, it did have a shield but it was aluminum ,I ripped this cable out and replaced with what I thought was CT 100 but turns out to be Gt 100 and the signal quality reception improved dramatically I get a lot more channels and overall better reception. One thing is Gt100 the new name for the ct 100? or was it just called ct100 to trick you to buy it? If so should I rip this cable out and try and find the real "ct 100", or is the cable I bought decent enough? thanks
Hi Callum, always good to put a bit of good quality coax in as it really does range hugely in quality. GT-100 is not the new name CT-100, you will just find that it's made by a different manufacturer to a similar standard. For instance we use a Webro cable called WF100, but there is a PF-100 also which you can buy from Screwfix. They are all very similar, I have just looked online and the Gt100 is a good cable so I would stick with the Gt100.
Is it worth doing this if I live in a flat which has tv, radio and 2 x satélite ports + TV return on the wall? My understanding is that the signal is not good anyway so would a better cable and fittings show an improvement in quality? Also, the TV sockets are male coaxials, guess I need a female coupler. If I plug an F cable to the satélite 2 connection and connect it to the TV return socket, will I then be able to use a splitter in the bedroom in the slave tv socket and then run 2 cables to the TV, one for Freeview and one for free sat?
Hi, I am guessing you are a professional aerial engineer installer, I have found your vids very helpful, just one thing, what is the best brand 2 way splitter for freeview I can buy, one that's high quality reliable and keeps signal loss to a minimum? thanks
Hey there, thanks I'm glad you like the videos. Yes I do this professionally. For indoor splitters I use the Vision 2 way F splitters. For outdoor use, I use Antiference 2 way splitters, although the Vision ones are good too. Hope this helps. Please do subscribe to the channel. :)
Love your style Tom but you speak too fast at times. Even putting on cc for words it unable to record. Even slowing rate of recording. Your hand covers lot of (two of them) shown held up.
