You can purchase a cable splitter for a couple bucks at Radio Shack, OSH, Rite Aid, etc. I used one back in college to run cable from my living room to bedroom. The other TVs need to be cable-ready or you need to rent more cable boxes. There might be a problem with signal degradation by splitting it so many times. Any cable installers out there that can speak to that issue.
so that I can view different stations on 4 different TVs at the same time? I realize that the signal coming in carries all channels, but how do I intercept the digital signal before it is isolated to just the TV near the cable box?
Can I split it by doing so from that short loop on the back?(RF in and RF out)
So far I can only view the digital channels on the Tube that it connects to. I tried to use the outbound signal but it controlled all TVs so I aborted.
What exactly happens between the two ends of that short loop on the back?
Sorry to rambl so much. Thanks in advance.
