Questions & Answers
Can this work with the clear stream 4 max
How many TVs can you run off of it
An inline amplifier by itself is designed to boost the signal coming from one antenna to one TV. It is not built to directly feed multiple TVs on its own. Even if you physically connected more TVs, each additional connection introduces signal loss. If the goal is to feed multiple TVs, that requires a distribution device (commonly a splitter) designed for that purpose—the RCA VH240R, provides properly amplified outputs for up to four TVs.
Does this amplifier have a light? You know, so I know it's working....
Hello Tommy - The amplifier does not have a power indicator light.
I can receive several channels (49(. But not abc which shows to broadcast from the same location
Hello Thomas - If you can send us a little more information about your specific location via our website, we would be glad to offer some more insightful information as to why you are not receiving that specific channel. Website link: https://www.rcaantennas.net/ask-engineer/
Use the RCA app. ABC in the NY area is the most tricky one but once you get it going all other channels pretty much fall in line. Try when the sky is clear.
My digital antenna goes in n out when the wind lightly blows, so Would this help with these issues?
If installed indoors wind not a factor, typically not installed outdoors. Wind may affect transmitter or block signal. Unlikely to affect all channels , but all from the same tower/base frequency.
We are getting interference from a short wave radio or some other source, will this amplifier help with that?
Hello Budc - Unfortunately without knowing the entire antenna system specifics it is difficult to say if the amplifier would help in your particular situation. It may make it worse. You can send us an email to RCAAntennahelp@voxxintl.com for further technical support.
What voltage does the amp take?
It came with a power adapter for 120 volts, forgot what it steps it down to.
will this amplify a HD cable signal not from a dish or roof antenna for a 50 to 70 foot coax run
I returned this antenna power booster as it not work good at our condo. We have a place near 3 air bases and signals get messed up due to the radars at bases. I do not know the answer to your question but try it and if not to your standards return item, you get at least 30 days. I could get signal during the early AM hours, but not after 11AM. I tried all the different antennas you could buy and nothing worked good so we use Wi-Fi service for signal now.
This is designed to work with an antenna.
