could i run the "tv out" into a booster since this combiner is passive?

Yes. Walmart has an amplifier made by RCA that has worked well for me. ($15)

yes - i used the combiner to feed in RF cables from my UHF and my VHF antennas - works pretty well depending on the signal strength coming in...

Included with this device is a power supply, but what you'll need is a length of coax cable (the same type which carries the TV /cable signal) to carry the power from the adapter to the booster. This was not included in my package. The length required will of course depend on how far away the splitter is from the power outlet.

You can, just plug into the required inputs jacks and activate that jack through the TV menu

You can. You would hook it up from the tv to your antenna. If you don't have a very strong signal to begin with, this won't boost the signal enough to get more channels. Before we hooked up the booster, we had 4 channels, and after we had 6. We live 30 miles away from where the networks broadcast, so we are too far away to get those channels without using an outdoor antenna.

None ... Use an in-line signal amplifier somewhere in the middle (power is required at that point) and Power either end with the other output lead.

I did not need a booster antenna...just put the antenna on a little canister that it stuck too and moved it around....and put it near window when programming the channels.. to my amazement , it worked well , in fact better than my TV with a more expensive antenna

Not the TV, since TV doesn't have an output. Rather a satellite reviver or DVD player or some other source of the signal.

Thanks very much for the info. I lucked out, since my equipment is to the right of the TV and I can't move it to the other side.

Yes. That is what I use it for. I have a long antenna run from a pole on top of my chimney all the way to my basement, with two splits along the way, and had weak reception on my basement TV. I added the signal booster to the run just before the last split and it improved the signal strength on both lines.

Yes. Even when the receiver is off, it will pass a 3D signal through to the TV.

Make sure you have your TV input source on the same one your box is connected to

In using this I found the best setup is the cable feed enters the house. Put in a 2-way splitter. One leg of the splitter run directly to the cable modem (I have Comcast), run the other leg of the two way splitter into this Booster. From this booster run to a single splitter with enough ports to supply all your televisions. If you have unused ports put terminators on them. I used this splitter from the Motorola Amp to my televisions Calrad 75-713-8 8-Way 1GHz Digital Splitter.They make smaller splitters, but this one had the amount of ports I needed. If you use multiple splitters you degrade your signal a lot, that's why one large splitter with all home runs of cable is best.Good luck.

Sorry but I don't know. If it is passive then no, if it is active then yes. Don't know that tv.

This question seems to be answered in another discussion, and the answer seems to be that you will have to run component and composite outs to the TV separately.

I have no idea but usually these types of things dont draw much power. of course you would need both the receiver and dish and of course the 2 would draw more than one but once the dish is found the signal I would think its power draw would be minimal. Would be interested to know though.

Yes you can - you can run the RC out from the TV to any input you want on the Sherwood. But remember, this stereo has no center channel, only stereo L/R, so there is no true 3.1 home theater functionality
