I just installed an antenna for off-air reception and it's wonderful. I'm
often getting 85-90% on the Dish network screen and the picture is
terrific. Question: Can I also attach one or more FM radios to the antenna
without much loss of quality?
Thanks.

Every time you split the signal, you lose 3 to 3.5db. It sounds like you
have enough strength to handle that though.

Howie, are you using a VHF/UHF antenna?
