    What is Analogue?

  9. capers on October 25, 2019 at 7:16 pm

    You showed a "tap" not an "amplifier".

    I don’t believe you will find any cable provider that is able to produce 200 6MHz channels. Most service providers are able to get a max of 750MHz to 800MHz due to quality of plant issues and older amplifiers. Newer amplifiers are hitting the >1GHz range but I haven’t heard of any providers utilizing the GHz range.

    k ty

  12. Steve Johnson on October 25, 2019 at 7:18 pm

    Actually this is how cable _used_ to work. Very few systems are still analog.

  13. George A on October 25, 2019 at 7:20 pm

  16. Ed Gladstone on October 25, 2019 at 7:24 pm

    Has anybody ever felt so distant from the rest of everybody by using a Different Type of Box TV service? Back then we all had the same cable service and watched the same shows at the same time.

  17. peanutbutterisfu on October 25, 2019 at 7:25 pm

    @imyourhustler thats y i dropped my cable.its just to expensive at least in my eyes.its like 80 bucks a month then the internet bill..i dont really watch tv that much so it doesnt matter and i can watch stuff online..if cable was like 40 bucks i would have no problem paying that but 80 is just to much for what you get,so many people i know feel the same way that if it was around 40 they would have it weather they watch it or not but oh well they want to charge alot then they will keep loosing

  18. Cdabek on October 25, 2019 at 7:25 pm

    @killdeth1 how the fuck did you find this out!?

  19. oilhammer04 on October 25, 2019 at 7:26 pm

    I just us an antena and still get more junk than I need. The picture is very clear for most channels.

  20. Tracie McCracken on October 25, 2019 at 7:27 pm

    Well that satellite dish at the antenna Farm was a piece of garbage

  21. 720moorhsum on October 25, 2019 at 7:29 pm

  22. caganb on October 25, 2019 at 7:30 pm

    How does cable work? I still don’t know.

  23. Johan Geist on October 25, 2019 at 7:31 pm

    SCREW YOUR COMMERCIALS.

  24. Kenny Stomski on October 25, 2019 at 7:33 pm

    and for you people that mention fios? remember that half of the fios systems out there are not 100% fiber. once you go copper to your house the benefits of fiber dwindle quickly… cut out the middle man – reach for the sky – satellite. at least you have two to choose from!

  25. John Chambers on October 25, 2019 at 7:35 pm

    that is a tap what a dumb ass.

  26. Some Name on October 25, 2019 at 7:37 pm

    It comes through cables thats why the service is called cable service.. Lol are we really this dumb as a civilization? Or please tell me this video is for elementary schools or something

  27. Neceros on October 25, 2019 at 7:38 pm

    "And modulates them into…" what… how… HOW? This didn’t teach me anything!

  28. fireguy bfd on October 25, 2019 at 7:38 pm

  29. Kenny Stomski on October 25, 2019 at 7:39 pm

  36. Sonic Seven on October 25, 2019 at 7:46 pm

    My bill keept going up and up its now at 600 for cable when they told me it woud be under 73 tottal its a tottal rip off when you can get FTA and skip the middle man cable company

  37. JayR0kk on October 25, 2019 at 7:48 pm

    LOL, that’s a tap at :46, not an amp. At :30, the 200 channels are not initially transmitted on coax. At the head end (where the satellites are), RF is converted to light and it’s sent out on fiber optic cable to a node, where it’s reconverted back to RF again. From there, RF travels into neighborhoods via coaxial cable. It is there that signal is amplified. This network is called an "HFC" network (Hybrid Fiber Coax). This video is based on 1980’s technology and 300 MHz systems. Nice try though

  38. Rui Correia Pinto on October 25, 2019 at 7:48 pm

    @720moorhsum
    i wish i didnt have 200 channels, most of them suck, trust me xD

    uBArETAbD ???????

  40. Kenny Stomski on October 25, 2019 at 7:51 pm

    so what we learn here is that the cable companies get their programming from satellites…. hmmm… why not subscribe to satellite? good enough for the cable company, good enough for me! and then you don’t have to worry about NODES being overloaded during peak times because the cable company jams everything down one piece of copper. most cable systems can’t deliver more than 1080i but you can get 1080p off satellite…. that damn copper wire just can’t handle it. ….

  41. chickenpoper on October 25, 2019 at 7:51 pm

    wow…im happy for the people who switched on over to antennas….good job people! stick it to tha man(cable) lawl

  46. blackham7 on October 25, 2019 at 7:58 pm

  47. David Head Guitarist on October 25, 2019 at 7:59 pm

    Why do people pay for commercial television? It’s ridiculous! We grew up in the ’50’s, ’60’s, & ’70’s without paying for television because ADVERTISERS pay to advertise so consumers would watch and buy their products. When cable TV first came about the idea was there would be no commercials. Slowly everything changed and people now pay to watch advertisements! INSANE! People give away all of their power mindlessly. Stop paying to watch TV and see how fast it becomes free again.
