    Adding gain to antenna distribution

    I'd like to drive LOTS of RG6 drops (i.e., 20?) without having to rewire splitters (they are highly inaccessible).

    I can't locate anything mains-powered near the splitters so any power has to come via an injector(s).

    So, is it better to put ALL the gain between the antenna and splitter; some gain on each drop AFTER the splitter; or a combination of the two? (Or, a multi-tiered splitter with gain between tiers?)

    [This is for CATV, OTA TV & FM]

      VESA EVC to VGA splitter cable
      by tmcw
      I found this splitter cable a while back, just got a chance to look at it now, and wondering what it might have been used for. Had a bit of trouble finding out initially what it was, main block that looks like a male DVI connector, split to 2 female VGA connectors.

      The main block that looks like a DVI connector is actually a VESA EVC male connector, best concise info here:

      http://www.interfacebus.com/Design_E...or_Pinout.html

      Pin 13 on the EVC connector is missing, so maybe removed for keying to some particular graphics card?

      Never came...

      Adding/unlocking CPU support for an HP EliteOne 800 G2 AIO
      by NecroFlex
      I bought a used HP EliteOne 800 G2 All in One PC, that has an i5 6500 in it with BIOS updates going into 2023. The Chipset in the AIO is a Q170, so in theory it should support 7th gen.

      HP site only shows a few 6th gen supported, when i inserted an i7 7700k (dead mem. A channel, but would be good in the AIO since i can just put a single 16GB stick in there) with the newest 2.60 bios, the AIO powered on and beeped/flashed an error code for the RAM (3 long 2 short) in the first ram slot and in the other slot it powered on, restarted and then stayed on a blank screen.

      I'm...

      by ElkoZH
      Hi everyone

      i have to replace an SMD ceramic capacitor on my Sonifex Redbox RB-DHD6 (Headphone Distribution Amplifiers) that is visibly burnt. I've been looking for a technical schematic for weeks, unfortunately without success. Can anybody help me further?
      Thank you in advance for your help

      Low voltage very high current rails distribution

      Low voltage very high current rail distribution

      I have some mains toroid transformer220v/12v, and thinking to add a few one-two turns fat coil in parallel, like in picture. Red are working windings, purple (top and bottom) is rails who connect all low voltage windings.

      Question is, how to connect that device to be as much more efficient in spot welder operation to distribute and pulls currents to all winding equaly, minimalize voltage drop?

      output on half E-F
      output on C-B
      connect A-B and C-D, output on A-F
      otherwise?...

      Adding a clock battery to action camera to retain date&time when changing batteries Campark X25
      by flat-earther
      I have a cheap action camera with an annoying trait, every time I change batteries the date & time gets reset and I have to set it again.

      To solve this problem I want to add a small internal battery inside it which will keep supplying power to the camera for a while while I change batteries so the date & time is retained.

      I have opened the camera and I think there is enough room to add something inside to accomplish this:

      The camera is powered by a 3.7V nominal single cell lithium ion battery.
      So I need to connect another battery in...
