Switches.

Not much to say about switches for TV, the most common type are A/B switches and are mostly used for switching between the antenna and a game or VCR/DVD to the antenna input on the TV.

Cheap switches will work as well as gold plated hi tech ones, they all have insertion loss and if you’re having problems with TV reception you may need a pre-amp to correct for the loss.

They work just as well backward as forward; you can switch between two (or more) antennas, VCR’s or DVD players, or one antenna to two TV’s.
