"It depends on a lot of things, location, type of aerial, basically the signal levels revived by your aerial. As a basic rule you should be able to run 3 with a good quality installation without the need for an amplifier."

"There are various boosters that you can get from 2 to 10 outputs, it will also depend on the strength of the original input signal."

You are able to run as many as you want. You may need some signal boosters."

"Hi, you can run as many as you want, you just need a multiple booster, in the loft, then all cables run from it to each location"

"Hi Simon,

It depends if you have a distribution amplifier, you can have quite a few if you have one of them installed."

"All depends on your location and signal strength and aerial type. You won’t know exactly unless you put a signal meter on your aerial to test."
