[QUOTE="A nonymous, post: 811270, member: 240839"] You can run just one cable for the aerial to the switch if you wish. If the customer decides to also have DAB & FM you can combine the signal from the other 2 aerials on the pole using an externally mounted V24-310. I have added a picture of a commercial rig just to give you an idea of a full SAT, UHF, DAB & FM external setup. I didn't go into earth bonding as that's a whole different can of worms. when i last looked the CAI ( Confederation of Aerial Industries ) stated you are also supposed to earth the IRS (Integrated reception system - Sat UHF,DAB,FM) rig. A lot of people have different views on this. In theory the IRS rig is usually the highest part of the house. Its usually aluminum or steel and basically acts a lightening rod. Now in the words of Doc Emmet Brown, If you shove 1.21 gigawatts into the houses consumer unit, It is going to cause a few issues so a lot of people are in the thought that the rig shouldn't be earthed :confused: Nano [/QUOTE]
