re variable attenuator

[arbeeuk]

I need an attenuator and have seen one at my local Toolstation.

However on the photo it seems to have screw threads on the aerial input / output. Will it still use the normal aerial connections?

Please edit out the direct website link, as its not permitted on this forum.

You could take a screenshot, and post that instead.

Its not suitable for the BT TV box as it has the wrong connectors.

I don't know the attenuator you are referring to, but from your description I would guess that they are "F" connectors, as used on satellite equipment.

B&Q sell one with suitable connectors, (known as "Belling-Lee), search their website for:

"Aerial Cable Variable Attenuator 0 20dB Coaxial Coax RF Digital TV Freeview"

Yep, the Toolstation one, for satellite connectors. Needs a screwdriver to work it, so strike 2.
