Spur Satellite Feed

The best than this is to use video signal sending unit it is more cheap and can use it to connect with many TV around circle with diameter approximately 30m i.e. 10f

Regarding the T "F" connector, yes you can do this without any problem. Effectively, most of the satellite receivers have an F connector as input and an F connector OUT for loop through connection. this loop through is exactly like a T "F" connector in your case and the receiver keeps functioning without any problem.

However, you can connect 2 receivers at the same time BUT you can only watch channel which are from the same polarization and from 1 satellite dish. In case of different polarisation, than the second receiver will not work.

Based on practical experience.

Best regards.

Use two 75 ohm splitters rather than "T's". A T will introduce reflections that will cause ghost images. A splitter has 75 ohms on all three ports to prevent reflections. This will cause a 6 dB voltage drop, but that rarely causes a loss in picture quality.

If passive splitters do create a problem due to attenuation, you will have to use high quality active "splitters" instead (one input, 2 or 3 amplified outputs). Don't use the cheapest amplifiers! They cause funny diagonal lines usually due to cheap power supply filtering.

Thank you, I will try the straight 'T' first (as they are 'cheap as chips) as I only have ~1.5m between sockets (either side of a fireplace) with the precaution of being able to upgrade to the 75ohm Splitter (or amplifier - unlikely as I am only 15m from the dish) if required. Both sockets will not be used at the same time; I am unsure if you meant the open socket alone could cause reflection. I will let you know in due course of my results! Sometime in the New Year (& a prosperous one to you) Does anyone make a satellite socket with a Supply, Input & Output for a house 'ring' circuit, often when building one has to give the customer a choice of where they will site the TV set, facing into or out of the room; surly this must be a common problem?

I mean that the "T" with 75 ohm loads on all three sides will create reflections. The 75 ohm source from the satellite antenna will see two 75 ohm loads in parallel. That will result in 37.5 ohms, and that will cause a reflection.

A 75 ohm splitter will appear to be 75 ohms looking in to all three ports. Any unused port must have a 75 ohm "dummy" load attached (true for the active amplified splitters too).

Hi....

What I understand that from dish (feed horn) you will bring the cable down and by using T 'F' connector splitter you will divide the one input in to two outputs and use at two different location, one at a time.

Yes you can do it. No issue at all.

it is not possible to use both the connection at the same time, though you may use two set top boxes.
