You know when you have a mobile tv tuner and they come with two sets of antennas with 4 3.5mm connectors?

an antenna like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/MONO-TWIN-PLUG-A...QQcmdZViewItem

would I be able to just buy one of those splitters so I could just use one of those antennas?

the tv tuner has 4 plugs to connect a pair of antennas. So to minimize wires, would one set work?

i just bought a sony xt-63v tv tuner instead of replacing my system as i intended. To limit the wiring i just wanted to use one set of the two antennas that it comes with. Would it make a difference if one is used?

 

As I mentioned it to you in the other thread, I have a Kenwood model #XXV-05V. Any ways it comes with a tv tuner too and two powered antennas. I must say though that being powered didn't do much to improve reception; slight improvement but not enough to make much of a difference. To test things out, I did pull one out and it really didn't matter. Maybe for your model it may or may not matter. I would test it out prior to cleaning up your installation to see if that second antenna would make much of a difference. Hope this helps.

 

The reception might fade. CHECK if one was designated UHF/VHF. on some installs (custom vans) two were required for signal strength, but it shoudnt hurt to split them.

 

Its a "diversity" antenna system, the tuner looks at the signal from each antenna and picks the stronger signal...

Should work with a splitter and one antenna, but you may lose some reception.

These tuners only work good if you're near a large city though.
