glitching

[cactikid]

sent you a pm with that site with loads of different connection
as you can get the opposite connection that has the threads on the outside and it joins two f connector cables together. but it depends what cables you have.

THANKS CACTIKID appreciated

just a standard virgin thick white cable with screw connections
i need something that looks identical (if not this) to this -
F Plug Male to F Plug Male Adaptors/Connectors x 2 | eBay
^ which looks fine to me ? (so i bought it seller says its wrong for the attenuator ?)

The variable attenuator has push on connections and so does the back of the 850, so what you need is a separate fly lead going from the attenuator to the box.

hi beetlejuice my attenuator is the 1 posted on page 1 of this thread
Cable TV Variable 0-20dB Signal Attenuator with F Plug Type Connector Fittings | eBay

as you can see the ends are screw type and the cable i want to attach is the same as the ends on the attenuator i know there is a connector just cant bloody find it or its name

this should be the bit you need mar but setting up the VARIABLE ATTENUATOR on my hd box didnt stop the glitching, its strange tho as it only glitches on certain channels like uk gold whilst others view perfectly

just seen on earlier post that you have a a780 so this probably is not the part you need, my apologies

think this item should work

this item should connect the attenuator to your kryptview box then your cable feed should already fit to the other connection on the attenuator

Thanks kostagav will give that a try tonight

i bought an attenuator but i have the virgin media cable in one end and the other end just plugged into my box is that correct or shud i have another cable coming from the attenuator to the box ?

[kostagav]

the cable is just a pass thru for the signal so you can use it with or without a cable

[mrmarr]

i am sorry for hijacking op

thanks for all your help guys a +rep coming to you all and op

the connection i bought works dont know what the seller was on about ? working sweet have not had a single glitch in an hour of use (thats saying somthing )

[monkeyballs]

mrmarr did you have to twist the thing around on the attenuator ?

[mrmarr]

you mean the red thing ? nope haven't touched it since it arrived then just put it onto back of box and fit feed wire.

im still having VERY minor glitches , and i do mean minor and not in the same category as glitches as before,before 1 or 2 a min but now 1 or 2 an hour and so minor they are almost unnoticable

i believe iv got a few more channels too my horror ch wasn't working tiz now and 1 or 2 more i noticed (cant remember the names )
