If you need to run up to 4 TVs from one aerial, you need this gizmo. It's very simple to set up. Run a mains feed to the gizmo from somewhere convenient, run your aerial cable into it, run the TV signal feed cables out of it to each telly. Job done.
You may find, as I did, that the digital signal at your location is strong enough, by the time this gizmo has amplified it, to avoid mounting your aerial on the roof outside but in your attic. This has lots of advantages - no risk of wind damage to it or house, no probs with it being blown off alignment, no deterioration due to weather, easy access for fiddling about.
I would say that getting an aerial amp like this would be worth it for all these benefits, even if you didn't need the multiple feeds. The same thing comes with fewer feeds, or more - whatever suits.
It will also feed radio signals as well. First rate piece of kit.

I purchased this to use as a splitter because I needed two aerial inputs into my Duel Tuner Computer TV card.
It did split the signal with no noticable loss of signal strength although it did not improve the signal quality as I had hoped it would.
At the time I bought this product I was not aware there are two types available, the one I bought has built in digital by-pass which I did not need but the other SLx available, which does not have the built in digital by-pass does apparently have a stronger gain output and may have been more suitable to my needs, so this is something to bear in mind when contemplating buying one of these Amplifiers.

Bought a new digital TV recently but found that on a lot of the digital stations the picture would intermittently blank out out due to erratic signal from my existing aerial. The picture on analogue was also passable but not great. Matters weren't helped by the fact that I also have a seperate Freeview box for viewing subscription channels that require a card (Setanta Sports) and that the aerial connection at the back of that box is a bit 'suspect' and seemed to degrade the signal into the main TV.
With the SLx amplifier/splitter plugged in, I've now got perfect reception on digital, analogue and the separate Freeview box. I'm really pleased with the gadget and it has saved on purchasing and fiddling about with all different amplifiers and splitters. It also looks pretty sleek.

The reason I bought this was so that I could split my TV signal and send it to my daughters' bedrooms without having to invest in new aerials or a satellite system. I live in a weak signal area, so any boost I could get would also have been useful.
My existing set-up requires a one-way booster in order for me to be able to get anything more than a snowy anaolgue picture or any digital channels at all. On receipt of my splitter, I disconnected the old booster and replaced it with the SLx 4: no difference. I then reconnected my existing booster and plugged the splitter downstream of it to find it boosted the already-amplified signal by just enough to tip the balance on my weakest digital channels, increasing the signal from a stuttering 3-4/10 to a perfectly watchable 6-7/10. Remember though, the unit was acting on an already-boosted signal.
I connected a second TV to one of the other outlets, ran the two simultaneously and found both analogue and digital reception on both sets to be perfect.
So, to sum up: great for sending TV to other rooms but little use as a booster.

Very dissapionted with my product as it failed after one hour's use.
Because I had to remove the plug to connect it into a box in my
roof space I was unable to return it as the guarentee was void.Albert

This appears to work fine,I have know idea if the amplifier part is required for digital, the title sounds as if it doesn't but it works with both digital and analogue.

The first one I ordered "burnt out" after about a month. The supplier then asked me to return it and sent me another one. So far so good..

perfect for my sky set up
Allows sky eye stuff to work perfectly again. The original part of the sky eye four room kit amplifier that died (not this type) has been replaced and all is well again.

Works perfectly
Very happy with the product. So far it has performed perfectly. The only thing that some people might not like is the exceptionally bright blue led. I don't mind it myself.
