send down the large center conductor of the cable. You might need a=

All the amplifiers in a community cable distribution system get their=20
power from the cable itself. It is 60 Hz whereas the cable signals=20

frequency. So let us know what you are asserting here... volt amps=20
frequency pick one then stick with it.=20
