Three-way splitters are less common, but a 4-way means a quarter of the input. Make sure the splitter matches the impedance of the antenna as do all of the cables. As long as the S/N ratio is good enough, the split will work fine as it is in the analog realm. Since signal strength will vary depending on location, splitting may work in some places and not in others. A broadband amplifier attached at or near the antenna will help a lot if the signal strength is enough to work well before splitting. If you have a friend who is a ham radio operator, they could help a lot. -- Kevin Oberman, Part time kid herder and retired Network Engineer E-mail: rkober...@gmail.com PGP Fingerprint: D03FB98AFA78E3B78C1694B318AB39EF1B055683
