[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 2853, member: 175144"] Dear Rolf The characteristics of the semiconductor and filter system inside the line amp (or equialiser) mean that the amplification of the frequency spectrum has a slope to it (hence slope equaliser) The upper frequencies are not amplifed as much as the lower ones In almost all cases Ive seen these units are sold over the counter as a quick fix solution, - its quicker and cheaper than replacing a bad run of cable, and since they cure the one problem the punter has been experiencing, its unlikely they are returned when another fault crops up. Running thicker wire has far more benefits from a signal point of view No substitute for a bigger dish though, you get more gain at the front end and less noise. [/QUOTE]
