can you use one antenna for multiple tvs? can the incomming signal be split?

Yes...We have ours hooked up to 2 tvs. We have to buy a converter box for one tv because it was not HD.

Sure you can. You will need a splitter box.One antenna in, 2 or more tv's out.Look up...antenna splitters. Cheers.(maybe tv splitters)

ordered 2 outside antennas neither one performs as advertised claims 125 mile reception. I am 50 to m75 miles from 2 major cities, and I am lucky if I can receive 4 stations had a old indoor antenna in fla and had all major networks. had 40 stations. am very unhappy with the 2 I ordered from amazon.

Just installed this last week and my neighbor in next door apt and I are sharing...it works wonderful...I've not split it past that but if need arose I could!

Yes I am using 4 tvs with this excellent antenna. Its picking up all free station from 150 miles away..I love this and good luck to you.

The box for rotating has two ports in rear...these can be split from multiable times although the TV where box is would be the one that controls rotation as needed

Yes, just keep in mind that each time you split the signal of the antenna you weaken the signal that actual reaches the device (t-v, DVR, etc.). You can probably get by with a one-to-two splitter, but more than that and you need to think about getting an RF Amplifier that has multiple outputs, with your antenna connected directly to the RF Amplifier, and individual coaxial feeds from there to each device. I've learned this the hard way.

I don't think that is possible; however, if it did work with a splitter each television would show the same channel. I wouldn't recommend this converter box brand mine didn't last very long.

Why?! That makes no sense and it's not how it is designed. To answer your question, you'd need a separate combiner/splitter to combine your illogical "two antennas" to the single input of THIS unit.

When using splitters there is always some loss of signal strength. Of course if you're lucky enough to have more than ample signal to start with, then any loss in the coupler may be unnoticeable. In my flat wave installation, the final spot I selected gave me enough signal to run two TVs from the one indoor antenna. I found a 2 set uhf vhf coupler in a home junk box but I'm sure you can find one for around $10.

Yes, but you will need a splitter or an amplifier with two outputs. The antenna has only one output. Splitters tend to attenuate (reduce) the signal strength by about half and there may not be enough to two tv sets. An amplifier with two outputs may be a better choice. My antenna system with a splitter does provide an adequate signal to both of my tv's. The major network broadcast towers are about 50 miles away.

One antenna with a splitter will work if the signal is strong enough. Every splitter weakens the signal and PC tuners are not as effective as tuners in regular tv or dvr's.

This antenna worked well with one television for stations that are 30 to 50 miles away. I had to use an amplifier in order to use a 4-way splitter, but I'm not in a direct path for the broadcasts.

Just one TV you need to get an aftermarket amplified splitter for multiple TV's. Yes you get local free programs with better clarity then cable.

You can, but what you probably want is a cable splitter, that will have both televisions with the same input (cable, satellite, antenna) at the same time. But if for some reason you want one TV to be without that input while the other is, you can surely use this switch.

No, this device is for multiple tvs. What you need is a HDMI switch, not splitter.

The instructions indicate that the antenna can be used for up to four TVs. I have mine hooked into an amplified eight way splitter. All connections are working fine.

No. The splitter that you refer to will provide multiple HDMI signals for multiple TVs from a single source. What you need is an HDMI switch to select one of multiple inputs to a single output to your TV. I recommend a Kinivo 301BN 3 port high speed HDMI switch with IR remote. Search for it here on Amazon - it's currently $29.95. That will do exactly what you want.

I tried to hook up four TV's and it did not work. I put the antenna in the attic and split to three TV's up stairs and one downstairs. Signal was too low. I don't think it worked with just two TV's connected. I don't think this would work with any antenna out there. To be able to have multiple TV's connected to one antenna, I'm thinking would require a separate amplifier.

We have one VIP612 receiver and use the signal separator to separate the two satellite signals traveling over the single coax cable coming into the house. If you are attempting to feed two receivers from one cable, I'm thinking a signal splitter would do the job instead of a signal separator.

You could do that but it would require an amplifier for each tv. Normally you would install the LNA 100 in the line between the Antenna and where the line splits off to the other tvs. Bear in mind that the LNA 100 is not weatherproof and needs to be indoors, for an amp mounted outdoors use the LNA 200.

You can buy additional receiver units for other tv's but the transmitter antenna will have to be aimed at whichever tv you are going to watch at that time. If you're thinking of seeing the picture on multiple tv's at the same time this will not do that.
