A house that has two Freeview Channel televisions uses an extra high roof aerial and receives from the Crystal Palace Transmitter. Due to recent strong winds it now needs a replacement aerial.
Currently the roof aerial lead goes down to the ground floor, then into a small signal amplifier with one output to the nearest TV and the other amplifier output connected to a cable that goes to the other television in the next room. Both these televisions being on the ground floor.
The signal strength is not great due to the geographical terrain between the house and the transmitter.
There is a wish to have a 'third' television. This time in an upstairs room. Would it be acceptable practice to connect another second cable to the roof aerial and run this second cable down outside and then through the wall on to the first' floor' for the third television?
Or would this arrangement present an extra load to the already fairly weak reception and so perhaps reduce the signal strength to the two already installed televisions ? They wouldn't want the extra expense of having to install two aerials. Or is there another way to simply add an extra television? Thanks.
