I am getting rid of cable and I am having a outside television antenna put up. Does anyone know how many television can be hooked to my antenna? Right now I have three tvs connected to my cable.

As many as you want since its just an Antenna. The 3 TV's seem just fine so if you want to add more later on, then go for it. Just make sure you have enough connections for the TV's.

Not very many. maybe 1 or 2 at the most. All the antenna does is capture the signal. Buy adding a splitter depending on how many ports are on the spliter you'll lose 3.5 db to 6 or 7 db.

All TVs can connect to an outside antennae. You may need a 300 ohm to 75 ohm adapter (to convert the round coax connector to the flat two wire), but they all work. You can get that adapter from any Radio Shack.

If you believe my apartment manager, about thirty-six.
If you go by the crappy reception I get using my connection to that antennae, less than 1/36.
Signals are attenuated primarily by the cable, and more cable causes more attenuation of the signal.

There's no limit per se.
But,splitters will degrade the signal as will long runs of cable.
You may need a signal amplifier to boost the feed if you are running the cable too far.

It's funny...You've got questions...We have answers...Radio Shack...anyway..depends on how long your cable is...but you should be able to use four off on large outside antenna..now any more then that might look into getting a amp from Radio Shack..and yes they do have them...

What is a telesion? I've never heard of one before? As far as a television is concerned the sky is the limit.

It is common in hotels motels etc to erect best aerial then feed that to an amplifier and distribution box ,the distribution box can have heaps depending on size of amplifier. done correctly then no problem ! .

Probably as many as you want..... but you might want to get a signal amplifier of some sort.... and use good cables.
