“Difference between the RF-G1179 and the RF-G1178 I have a bunch of cable drops in my house and have been using the RF-G1178 and it's been great for boost throughout house. I've got one cable box that may need a little boost because all of the features are not available from the cable box. The RF-G1178 is discontinued. So, are these basically used for same thing? But the RF-G1179 will boost 4 things and not just one?”

If TV antenna is aimed properly - it will boost the power via the AC Adaptor to RF-G1179. I get 66 channels on four TV's and one CLEARSTREAM 2V antenna as the main source. Must make sure adaptor is plugged in on your RF-G1179 amplifier and you must down-load your channels through each and every TV you have hooked up. My longest length of RG6 cable is about 25 to 30 feet for 3 TV's for the fourth TV the cable is 10 feet long - great clarity on all TV's. I get 8 PBS channels great stuff on these channels, especially Austin City Limits on Saturday night. I even pick-up three Baltimore channels (100 miles from my house but normally its either early in the morning or late at night). Great Antenna, great amplifier. Check out antennasdirect.com on the Web Site. Use your Zip code for Transmitter locations. You can also get a TV Guide for these stations. PBS technicians told me about this great resource. I did not choose their recommended antenna. I am very happy with CLEARSTREAM 2V which has great reviews.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You do not have to use all 4 outs. It has nice plastic covers for those not needed or used.
