I was bored this weekend so decided to do some wiring around the house. I want to watch big brother in bed and as on digital collapse put that to bed I decided to get cable upstairs.

I bought a splitter and not wanting to drill holes all over the house used the unused coaxial cable going from the roof ant to the lougne and put a new connector on it and then put it into the splitter.

Then went up into the loft where the old ant is and basically taped together dodgily the 3 wires. It works just although the picture is a bit fuzzy. Im thinking thats because of the sheer expanse of wire and my taping together.

Anyone got any recomendations on amplifiers to put up in the roof and ive seen that pro installers have a tool to strip the television cable properly and stick a new connector on it.

Thanks
