Modern kids would call CPS on you if you tried to cut into their iPad and Nintendo time. Parenting is done by the algorithm in 2020

switching PSUs can actually live even on 120 volts DC or whatever random frequency you poo poo into them. they're chopping it up and managing it at 15 khz - which creates harmonics through every ham band which is how i know how they "work"

the back of my UPS looks like this: the way i have live TV set up in my house is I have an HD antenna on my roof, then a coaxial cable goes all the way from there along the entirety of my house to an HD Homerun in my basement. then i get live TV on every TV in my house via Plex, which works in conjunction with the HD Homerun box. should i put it into the coaxial ports on the back of this thing first before it goes to the HD Homerun? the only thing i am worried about is signal degradation. as it is, some stations i BARELY get, like when i was using splitters i wouldn't get channel 7 (ABC) at all. does using something like this on the UPS degrade the signal at all, in the same way a splitter or coupler does?

Chumbawumba4ever97 posted:the back of my UPS looks like this: Generally a surge suppressor wants to be as far "north" (as close to the jack/plug) as possible so the surge suppressor rides the lighning before your (more expensive thing plugged into it). For a cheapo appliance though it might not matter, especially if your reception through it is already marginal. The question is: "Which would you like to replace less"?
