Does it test standard 50ohm coaxial for a over the air TV antenna for shorts and continuity?

I currently use my vdv to test continuity and shorts as well as volts on line on 90 Ohm coaxial cable (standard RG6)You would have no problem proving coaxial cable with 50 Ohm

Dont know about the coax. The terminations are N between the external antenna and the device, and N/F from the device to internal antena

Probably has, why not? Coax is just an RF pipe. I'm using it for 0 - 30 mHz receive only.

yes. the picture is wrong, the probe has rj45 (not rj11) port in it and the two units together will test each of the 8 conductors on the ethernet cable for shorts, opens, and correct order.

Yes. As the previous answer indicated using a coax cable splitter. If the signal is to weak then you may have to add a small amplifier, that's what I did. Search Amazon for 'signal amplifier tv antenna'. Find an inexpensive amplifier with an 18 dB output. Should give you a range (reach) of about 30 miles.

It probably should be, but I didn't. I just unhook the coaxial connection from the antenna to the DVD recorder/TV. Also, I unplug all the electronics.Base material for actual antenna is plastic and metal, it has both.

Possibly, usually the SWR meter doesn't distinguish between (doesn't care about) antenna types, it only provides information based on the antenna you're attached to, the length of your coax or feed, your frequency, and power. Look up the manufacturer website and check to see if your meter covers the 2M/70CM range. This antenna is 'cut' to the rough center of those bands.

Yes, as long as the Mag can be 1st on the coax in an OTA antenna or cable TV system, or on one leg of a 2-way splitter.The coax circuit is an amplified, built-in splitter that send the raw signal thru to a cable box or TV while sending it also to the tuner so both components can tune channels separatel... record one channel while watching a diff. channel with the cable box's or TV's tuner.Other info and help files are here:http://www.avsforum.com/t/940657/magnavox-537-535-533-515-513-2160a-2160-2080-philips-3576-3575/0_10#post_12244086

Don't know exactly but if you look on the back of your unit and you have a male coax cable connector fitting, then it will work.

No it does not work from a standard Coax cable- THIS CABLE will not work for that ,it is some type of specialty coax hookup not for home

This antenna connects with a 75 ohm coax cable. The real problem is that over the air signals are digital and requires your TV set to have a digital tuner; otherwise you would need a converter for this antenna to the best of my knowlage.

Yes, there is a coaxial RF input for connecting an external antenna. The built in tuner will pick up both analog and digital (HD) over-the-air broadcasts.

Hello, the coax function does work end to end. At the bottom of the tester is the remote probe you pull out. One side of the probe has a RJ-11 and RJ-45 connector, the other side is a small male F connector. I highly recommend also getting a F connector coupler for testing coax cables. Most of my coax connections I test are BNC, so I had to make a few converters for it to suit my needs. Hope this helps

Yes it has in and out coax connections, select "Antenna" from the menu for over-the-air TV channels.

No it is not manufactured for that use -It is a specialty cable IT WILL NOT FIT the TV COAX Hope this helps

First of all, make sure that your cable signal isn't scrambled (requires a decoder box). If it isn't, what you are looking for is called "coaxial cable" ("coax cable" for short), and can be found for under $10 on Amazon.

Yes there is one tip that screws on to the end of the coax cable that you trying to find/test , it has a led that lights up green if your connection is good, I highly recommend this tester, I'm an a/v tech and it's a great value for its price
