I have a TV point in my back room that is fed directly from the coaxial cable coming from the outside ariel. I have a second ariel point in another room that is fed off the first ariel point the second ariel point is fed by another piece of coaxial cable from the first ariel point to the second.
The second piece coaxial cable feeding the second point has its main core pushed into the main part of the first socket so its side by side with the main core off the main coaxial feed, the wire mesh from both coaxials cables has been twisted together and screwed into the part of the ariel socket this goes to, should this work ?
At the moment the second ariel point is not working after I fitted a new ariel socket (the socket is fine tested), Im not sure if its something to do with the coaxial setup I have ? Would having any of the mesh bit touching the main core break things ? Or would having both the cores touch break things ? Also would a kink in the coaxial break things I think there may be a kink in the second peice of coaxial but I can't access it.
Cheers
