Hi, I'm trying to make the switch to cable. I've got a couple of questions, and was hoping if the community here could kindly answer them.
With the satellite option, one thing I really liked was the ability to pickup Irish Channels.
Does cable offer the same ability? You cannot get Irish channels if you live outside Ireland.
Do I need multiple lines coming into my home to gain the ability to watch one channel and record another? or is that done by splitting the single cable line coming in a third time? Depends on the box
Would splitting the cable have any affect on my broadband speed? No
I've read the handy FAQ by ste multiple times, would these products be suitable for my setup?
Is there anything else I need to purchase? to be able to watch one channel and record another? No
Does cable gift system work the same way as satellite? n-line, mgcamd etc. Yes
Any help is appreciated.

- Labgear 3 way UHF 5-1000MHZ (ste recommends this one)
- Webro WF100 25 m
- F Compression connectors
Any help is appreciated.
