Does each receiver work fine independently of the other, ie only one
connected at a time ??? My setup works in the same way as Wayne's !
Antenna to a splitter. One output to each receiver. The only thing
that I have that is different is a masthead amplifier ! But that is
because I'm in a signal shadow area. A weak signal to begin with.
A point worth noting is that each port will only have half the total
signal available to feed each receiver !
