I am trying to distibute RF TV signals around my house to various TVs in other rooms. I am running a cable from the RF out on the decoder to a splitter, and then to the various rooms. I found that I was getting about 100 volts on the earth and live at the splitter. I then found that if I disconnected everything from the video machine in one of the rooms, if the video machine was on top of the TV I got about 50 volts on the earth and positive of the RF in socket, whereas if I moved the video a good distance away from the TV, it dropped to a few volts.
Is the video tuner picking up radiation from the TV? Are high floating voltages like this on RF lines common? I have earthed the central splitter to make things safe, but i am not getting very good UHF results, so any help/insight would be appreciated.
