[QUOTE="spiney, post: 126285, member: 192438"] Hello, just spotted this, glad somebody found the multiswitch info useful. I've not anything to add, to above v good advice. All seems to be covered. It's not really necessary to take that much trouble about enclosing cables, do they have to be especially fireproof? There are fire retardant types. It's easy to do, but tedious, so go slowly and methodically (and use a coax cable stripper, and mind your fingers on the cable braiding, it can prick!). You don't really need a spectrum analyser for the installation. Problems with such distributions are quite rare, especially of course for digital signals. Note that the dtg specify "communal antenna systems" to include FM and DAB, but most people aren't bothered about these, just telly! Remember to have enough spare outlets for Sky+ upgrades, and make it reasonably possible for Sky installers to find and connect to them. [/QUOTE]
