Work has announced to remove all cable TV amplifiers as we come across them in preparation for conversion to high-split systems.. soo, there will be a large surplus of unity gain amplifiers soon.
So, just out of blind curiosity, has anyone ever tried using a unity gain cable amplifier to feed signal to multiple scanners before? I know that they are designed for 75 ohm and not 50 ohm like most radios/scanners, and I know it’s not the “proper” way.. but I’m curious how well it would work instead of doing multiple passive tees and short of spending proper money for a proper amplifier.
You know.. for science.
