Splitting freeview tv aerial
Discussion
Split it as close to the mast as possible.
'Boosters' that people have behind the telly just amplify the whole RF spectrum on the wire, so whilst the signal is stronger, the st is too.
If you split it at the mast or in the loft then you're splitting the signal with a low noise floor to start with.

I did this last weekend using this kit from Screwfix

The 4-way amp is very good but there were a couple of plugs and sockets missing so check it at the shop if you get it.
I now have 95% signal strength and 100% quality on 4 outputs using a high-gain aerial. As previously said, the signal is only as good as what the aerial picks up so if your signal is noisy you will amplifiy the noise so it's worth rechecking the direction your aerial points to.
