Gyn_Paul Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Has anyone come across a cheap source of coupler/decouplers in France? I need pairs of FM+UHF to UHF, and UHF+SAT to SAT.I can find them on Ebay for £4.00 ish but won't deliver to France. The only place I can find them on line here is Conrad, where - predictably - they're €14.50 a piece.I know the insertion loss would be biggish, but we are in a strong TNT signal area, and the sat feed it to my dedicated R4 receiver, and I shall tweek the dish to favour that transponder.p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre ZFP Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I've seen these in Auchan of all places at around the €4 mark. I was helping out a colleague at work to do something very similar to what you want to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gyn_Paul Posted August 24, 2011 Author Share Posted August 24, 2011 no, can't seem to find them in the catalogue. Isn't Radiospares now Maplins in the UK? Haven't seen Radiospares (or RSComponents as it became) since I left local radio back in the dark ages. A real blast from the past !p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anton Redman Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I think and hope they are separately owned:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RS_Componentshttp://uk.rs-online.com/web/generalDisplay.html?id=branchNetworkhttp://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/banksandfinance/privateequity/8111074/Buy-out-giants-Blackstone-Advent-and-CVC-circle-Maplin.htmlhttp://www.maplin.co.uk/Maplin opened and the best and most entertaining electronics business in Kingston upon Thames closed. In contrast to RS they sell packaged over priced stuff. They even make Radio Shack look a good bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
