Best Answer

The signal will move down the cable at from about 1/3 the speed of light to about 9/10 the speed of light, depending on the type of cable used. If there is a booster amplifier in the cable between the antenna and the TV set this will add more delay.

You will need to know the length and types of cable used (and look up their signal propagation speed) as well as the delay of your booster amplifier if your system has one to calculate the answer to your question.

What determines the amount of deviation of an fm signal?

FM or frequency modulation is a means to vary the frequency withing a set basic frequency and transmit it. FM radio demodulate the frequency extracting the signal that made the frequency shift at the source.


Differentiate between small signal and large signal amplifier?

The amplifier is supposed to be an electronic circuit. Electronic circuits are nonlinear circuits, which may be modeled in the time domain by means of nonlinear differential equations and nonlinear algebraic equations. The kernel of the solution of the nonlinear equations is the solution of a linear equation system i.e. the nonlinear components and couplings are approximated with linear relations valid for small signals. Iterations are performed until the laws of Kirchhoff are fulfilled. The instant set of linear equations is the small signal model for the amplifier. If the amplifier is excited with a dc power source it assumes an active state called the bias point or quiescent point. If the relation between the input and the output signals of the amplifier is measured to be (almost) linear in the bias point then we assume a small signal amplifier with time independent bias point else we assume a large signal amplifier.


What is the line coding scheme used for the DS-1 signal?

the line coding can be either AMI or B8ZS according to how the equipment is set up along the path and at either end.


What is the setting time of concrete?

The length of time that concrete takes to set, will depend on the temperature. It would take approximately 4 hours for concrete to set at a temperature of 80 degrees.

Why might a mast-mounted amplifier be preferable to an amplifier right at the TV set?

The mast mounted amplifier will amplify only what is coming out of the antenna, while a set located amplifier will also amplify any noise that was induced in the lines between the mast and the set.

What is periodic signal?

A periodic signal has two major characteristics: frequency and amplitude. Frequency is the number of times the periodic signal occurs in a set time, and the amplitude refers to how strong the signal is.

Why won't my DVR record as scheduled?

Most likely your clock is set incorrectly. If you told it to come on at 9 pm but it comes on at 9:15 am, then your clock needs to be set to the correct time.Some DVRs get a time signal from the cable company or satellite. If this is the case, you need to set your time zone on the DVR. Satellites run on Coordinated Universal Time (the time on the Prime Meridian that runs through Greenwich, England). Some cable companies may also run in a different time zone, which will put your start-stop times off by an hour or more.If you continue to have problems, turn off the Auto Time Set option and set the time manually.


How do you change the time on a Sharp atomic clock?

Leave it alone. The next time it gets a radio signal lock it will set itself. If it sets wrong, verify and if necessary correct the time zone.
