I am living in the UK and I do not currently have a connection for an external aerial for digital (DVB-T) television (an aerial on the roof). I cannot afford to have one installed. However, one of the neighbours in my block of flats has said that I can feed of his aerial -- the coaxial cable for it passes by my window.
How do I feed off this coaxial cable without affecting his signal, which is used for both analogue and digital TV reception?
Is it enough to use a splitter, or will this make his connection worse? I already have a coaxial splitter, which splits one connection into two. But it was designed for CATV - it is a Tratec ES-02/MS and gives two 3.7dB outputs **broken link removed**. It says that it handles 5-1000MHz, and I think that analogue and digital terrestrial are both within this range. So will it be a problem to use this splitter?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
