CC 8504318090

Note: Always used as a set in conjunction with a masthead amplifier

Used in conjunction with a masthead amplifier to add gain to a VHF Aerial and/or a UHF aerial

Used in poor reception areas where the aerials need to be amplified in order to achieve a clear picture due to: Long distance from the transmitter Interference caused by an obstruction e.g. (hill)

Depending on the masthead amplifier it is used it can help achieve a 25dB gain which can transform a hazy picture into a clear picture

The same power unit can be used with a range of masthead amplifiers and aerials

Can be used with power passing splitters to feed a number of rooms

Reliable robust unit with high quality low loss f-type connections

Less expensive than a 2 output power unit

More effective than a using a distribution system

A reasonably high level of experience is required to know how and more importantly, when to use a power unit and a masthead amplifier

If used incorrectly or if there is a large amount of background interference a power unit and a masthead amplifier can actually make matters worse - particularly in a strong reception area

Can be a victim of new broadcasts e.g. the new garda radio system can cause chaos with amplified aerials
