I think that's correct. I have 5 hookups around the house. I was only using two of them. Will I need terminators on the other three inside the house? It should just be right at the outlet, right? Or should I disconnect the coax from the splitters?

Sounds like I do need a pre-amp. I'll try to estimate how much cash this will set me back to consider my options.

Thanks for all the help.
