Can I Use A Metro TV Decoder With A CTL Pointer? by FrankFrenzy(m): 8:07am On Jan 09, 2018 |
Hello Team Nairaland Please I need a proper clarification on the subject matter. Can I use my CTL decoder with a Metro antenna or a metro decoder with a CTL antenna (pointer). My CTL displays an error message indicating that my antenna signal strength is not strong and a neighbour advised that I try using it with his metro antenna to know if the issue is from my antenna, this I did and it wouldn't work with his metro decoder; again I connected his metro decoder box with my CTL antenna (pointer) yet it didn't work. He is suggesting I get a new antenna but please I need advise from my Tech and digital savvy friends in Nairaland so as to avoid making mistakes. |

FrankFrenzy: Ctl box outputs 24v to the antenna while metro does not. Confirm if your decoder is ok by carefully sparking the RF wire. If the decoder reboots, then change your wire or antenna. |

FrankFrenzy:. RF wire is that black wire that runs from the antenna to the decoder. |

SlyCharlie: OK. Thanks bro Can a bad antenna or pointer get clear TV signal? This one had clear signals and was showing perfectly yesterday morning before everything went off, even when I'm in a location where the signal strength is ok |

FrankFrenzy:Change the Antenna. If its CTL u using, get a new Pointer antenna(Panorama). U could try checkin the Cable too for breaches and bridges. |
