Well, whatever used to be a standard, now his booster uses 6VDC. Ask the chinese, I did not do it... :???: Seems the USB jack current is capable to please the antenna booster. I will not complain. Specs here show 6V/100mA ----> https://www.ebay.com/itm/192285092531?chn=ps&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=711...

Looking for power injector for amplified antenna...
Hi all. A TV antenna on the roof has a built-in preamplifier. Am looking for a power injector that will send 12V to the antenna and will separate the RF signal to feed the TV RF input.

Hi John.
Seen a TV remote control emitting commands by itself caused by a nearby idle cell phone.
Without any other actions, tape cover the TV infrared window; move the remote to another room with batteries removed just to confirm, and come back...
