    Default Cable TV and internet freq range.

    Does anyone know what freq range optus cable tv and internet uses and foxtel cable tv and internet for that matter?

    What I am trying to do is combine an optus cable tv signal with terr TV signal on one cable. If the optus cable signal is a higher frequency than Terrestrial TV then I should be able to be combined it easily.

    Unlike satellite frequencies, which are well above terrestrial TV frequencies and can easily be diplexed/separated, cable TV/internet signals are spread from 100MHz to 600MHz, so they effectively share the terrestrial bands, so you will not be able to combine them all on one cable with a diplexer, if that's what you had in mind.

    Just a random thought for a Sunday - since the tuner module is the only difference between the satellite and cable versions of many decoders, I wonder whether there is a vestigial DISEqC function* that could be used to switch between inputs.
    I don't have a box at hand to examine, but I think I've seen that menu option in a cable decoder before. Whether it actually does anything is another matter.

    * Yes, I am aware that DISEqC is only intended for satellite.

    That's the lowest analogue frequency (VHF 0) that VHF analogue tuners can tune to. SBS used to have that frequency for terrestrial use back in the 80's before it moved up to UHF.
    When digital transmission on cable started it was relegated up into the high UHF range to prevent interference but now that it's gone all the extra new channels will increasingly occupy lower spectrum.
