Diego Sanchez Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 Hi everyone Here in the UK, we use for some wireless headphones and receivers a frequency between 864-865Mhz as it is free of licence. As this frequency falls in the rage of wide-band antennas, i was wondering if i could plug my ifb transmitter to the antenna out on my venue receiver and use my 2 shark fin antennas with it at the same time as using the venue? Will it work or will it make some interference from one system to the other? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rich Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 are you not talking about plugging an output into an output? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Steigerwald Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 to the antenna out on my venue receiver That's an antenna input with a pass through for additional receivers. Short answer to your question is no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Venue output goes to the next receiver as a daisy chain. Between the sharkfin and that output you have a 7 way splitter (big loss 8 dB), a matching pad (small loss 3 dB) and an amplifier into which you would be going backwards (major loss 30 dB). After 40 dB of loss, you'd be better off burying the IFB transmitter in the ground. Best, Larry F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego Sanchez Posted November 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 That makes sense. I was wondering if there was a way of using the same antenna for receivers and for ifb. Will keep the 2 antennas then Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" even without Larry's answer, doesn't connecting a TX output into an TX unit sound a little scary ?? " if there was a way of using the same antenna for receivers and for ifb. " well, yes, it is called a diplexer, and wikipedia and or Google are your friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
