Tools and Hardware Reviews of Coax Cable Continuity Tester
Customer Review: Affordable coaxial cable tester for anyone!
Summary: 5 Stars
Due to some moving factors, I had to figure out a couple of no-signal issues regarding my Direct TV, and my mess of coaxial cables running throughout my house. Due to my builders lack of labeling any wire, I was staring at my coaxial cable input / output area, and no knowledge of what wire was going to what outlet.
My specific problem was that my DVR could record two shows at the same time, and it was working fine until I tried moving a room's signal from the current outlet to another in the same room. I failed, and got a longer cable to plug into the same outlet. However, I did notice my DVR recordings were not getting recorded, and I figured out that I disconnected the second source, which allowed it to record two programs at once, and needed to reconnect it.
I went to the local Radio Shack, and they told me they do not sell any coaxial testers, so my friend suggested I look it up on the internet and see if I could buy one, and save a call to DirectTV. I saw the one on Amazon and due to the reviews I read, I bought this product.
So yesterday, my friend and I got this device, looked over the instructions, and put this device to the test. We put the signal provider on the outlet in question, and after a few moments, sure enough my friend with the receiver got the beep, and reconnected the cable, and it was fixed.
I would recommend this to anyone who has to test coaxial cables, this product is easy to use, durable, and a great help with non-labeled nightmares like mine.
