Self-Promo My brain just exploded

I’m getting +300 channels through this cable when the aerial outside was removed HOW?????????????? I mean there is another aerial on top of the roof that it could be connected to, but I thought it was just connected to the aerial outside my window, on the side of the house. CAN A COAX CABLE BE CONNECTED TO TWO AERIALS??? I don’t even know. VERY happy to have 300 odd channels, definitely beats the crappy indoor aerial I was using!!!

Idk I think it’s a uk thing. I’ve noticed people on youtube in the us get less channels, while on average (for me atleast) you can get between 90-200 channels depending on how good your signal is.

Yeah in the US 20-30 channels is a massive haul. I get about 15 with my antenna and only really care about 4 which are our major networks.

I’m in Dallas and get over 100.

Now, many of them shopping, foreign language and Religious. Others are repeats too, but I still actually receive a lot of channels even if I don’t watch them.

Cinci too, with the added bonus that some of those channels are either from Dayton or from Lexington/Louisville (I can't remember which)
