if you use is as intended (a direct connection from the modulator to the TV via cable), just make sure you set the RF out the minimum to avoid swamping the tuner. They are designed for cable tv networks and can put out a LOT of RF to drive a lot of cable. I don't want the funny cookie cutters to get mad so will not talk about xmitting ota .

you will need remember to connect the IF in and IF out with a jumper as well.

I have several of them in various models. So, if it doesn't seem to work when you get it, you may have to replace the voltage regulator and/or the filter capacitors in the power supply. Most of the ones I have purchased were OK. But the others were easily fixed with new filter caps and the regulator, easy to do, easy to get. I even got the regulator from Radio Shack of all places.

Cheers!
