Re: TV Distro



I've a loftbox and it works fine for rf distribution but the only
problem is that this is basically c**p quality anyway.  In our house
the loftbox doesn't seem to materially degrade the picture compare to
a tv connected direct to the sky box 'rf out'.  But with LCD/Plasma it
just looks pretty poor.  Not so bas with older crt tvs, they may be a
bit more accomodating.

In the end we switched to the Kat5 svideo distribution and its
startlingly different.
