How to Install a Masthead Amplifier for Digital TV - Part 1

Installing a masthead amplifier booster for Digital TV. In this part I install the amplifier on the masthead. See Part 2 for how to feed power through the splitter to the masthead.

Thank you ! Beautiful presentation. The only observation I have is the hanging balun (transformer). I always relieve any stress to the two connectors by supporting the balun to the antenna using electrical tape or UV resistant (black) tie wrap. However, I try to avoid any TV antenna that does not have a direct coax cable connector.

Hi great video. Will that booster allow multiple tv’s or do you also need a plug in booster inside.

Hi, I had one of them boxes on mine but the internals were rusted through and not working, can I just buy a internal booster/splitter that plugs into the mains instead of having the external please

That was a great video but I am wanting to remove my masthead amplifier as it's no longer required so do I basically just do the reverse of what you did? I have a power supply inside the house so I don't have to worry about that part but just hoping I have a bit of slack cable inside the roof that I can pull through or can I just connect up the two cables that went into the amplifier box with a joiner?

If you constantly have the power on the preamplifier, is there a danger of it burning out faster?

[paulahavens]

can you put the amplifier inside instead of outside.

good video! I have full bars reception on my tv yet the digital is breaking up regularly, I have a kingray amplifier, but just wondering if you can get something more powerful if the digital tv drops out? Really getting annoying!

ONLY mistake he made is cable ties they are not reall UV resistant i use coated copper on my amp still there while neighbours have replaced ties 3 times in same period
