I just moved in to the new house. There is a 4-way coax splitter in

Every 4-way I have seen has actually been an amplifier - look at it
from all sides and see if there is a power connection: it would probably
be DC power from a 'wall-wart' located elsewhere.

All above are *unamplified* 4-way splitters.

A 4-output 3dB amplifier.

Even if his splitter is good, this amplifier may serve as a good substitute.


Uh, he now knows that from about 12 hrs ago.
