That's why I use nothing but Telewave or TXRX receive multicouplers on my commercial tower. I still have the Radio Shack splitter, can't remember what I built it for but have never used it on the tower.

The one's I've tried checked good (~20 dB) but not all are the same of course. Even with 20 to 30 dB separation between ports, it's still possible that a bad RX connected to one port can gunk up the others. Once we had someone's RX preamp break into oscillation & backfeed 0 dBm into the splitter. Bob Yahoo! Groups Links Yahoo!
