Full scan suckout CATV

[@dhermosillo09]

You should post more videos, you've actually helped a learning cable tech avoid generating useless OSP work orders!

[@thebasiccablechannel7464]

Yeah, I have been away from the field so it makes it tough to make more videos.

[@dhermosillo09]

@@thebasiccablechannel7464 hope all is well.

Get back out there!! The CHINESIUM COVIDS are winning the battle when you hide in Joe Biden’s basement. 🦠🦠😷😷🦠🦠 😂🤣😆 Figure out which former co-worker is now a KZbin fan? 👍🏻😀. Good job btw

[@chobo2276]

thanks buddy! Im a inhouse tech and im seeing my future as a maintenance tech, and i didnt know what an equalizer was and that it creates suckouts. Thanks

[@DJSubAir]

I'm still learning but your videos have opened my eyes a bit :)

[@joseph_b319]

I had a similar problem yesterday. I had a suck out on the high frequencies, we have a program called spectra that can find suck outs. It tracked me to a line splitter, all 4 screws were unscrewed to the thread with the splitter slightly ajar. I pushed the splitter to reseat it and the suck out cleared.

Love that probe. Keep making videos!

where did you get the seizure screw checker on your meter?

Where did you get that fitting to connect to housing.

What's the difference between a FFF8-100S\RP and FFF8-100K\RP inline equalizers?

[@Nard1447]

Just fixed the exact same suckout the other day and it was the same thing bad EQ.

Corning Gilbert Spring Loaded 5/8in to F Test Probe

ILOVE cable TV job

[@MichaelBrown-pv3tv]

If you call that a "suck out", what do yo call it when the center conductor of a cable pulls out due to excessive hot and cold temperatures while giving the outside appearance that the connection is good? Also, is that a COX system? I was just wondering since they seem to be the only ones who do not use PPC all the way.

[@MisterModder123]

Also a suckout. I see it a lot on undergrounds that are spliced and don't have a loop to account for expansion contraction.

[@---GOD---]

How can I as a customer know if my issues are due to suckout?

[@lmtreat28]

What kind of test probe is that?

[@l.c.9596]

What kind of connector do you have attached to your jumper cable that you used to Insert Into the equalizer?

[@DJSubAir]

I was wondering the same thing myself

[@Naz1204G]

Pin to F if I’m not mistaken. They help out greatly to see what’s coming into devices.

[@Vicentejmd]

@@Naz1204G Hello where can I buy one?

[@sumfatt640]

why is there a big space in the spectrum ?what does the red area mean ? because after you said its gone there is still red area

[@SaintGuardian]

Those red lines at the end are just what that OnX meter shows when you pull the jumper out while its still scanning cause the meter thinks the signal died. there is a delay before it rescans that channel after plugging it back in and clears the no signal fault. the big empty space is just their plant design. the whole spectrum doesnt have to be full of channels. looks like they cleared out a section big enough to put in a OFDM carrier in the future.

I can’t find that probe to save my life, what website should I go on to buy this probe?

Contact Corning and ask for a dealer in your area.

[@Tyranticore]

what kind of connection is that on your patch cable ? we use an istop in our system. it has to be threaded into each port

[@Tyranticore]

heh I see a reply farther down. I didnt look at the comments section. thanks

Gilbert part number NS-9178-1

[@W3bbw00d]

That is the part number for the port probe you are using?

[@stringtiger2002]

does anyone know how to remote into it so you can leave in a hub and look at spectrum on android phone, i hear people saying it can be done but never seen anyone actually do it, talk is cheap

[@harryjohnson615]

Yeah it's a year old but someone might find it useful. Bluetooth connection and download the Viavi app for android

[@stringtiger2002]

@@harryjohnson615 I figured it out already I actually posted a video on LinkedIn I'll probably post it on KZbin it's actually very easy but you do have to have your meter updated and you don't do it with the app that they talked about on The View hobby site this is an actual leave the meter at the head end or wherever plugged into a router and you can go anywhere in the system you could even be in another town and look at it you could be on vacation and remotely look at that meter you just have to have an app on your Android device

[@harryjohnson615]

@@stringtiger2002 Cool, thanks for the heads up on the app you're talking about. I wonder if it's a licensed option too, worth mentioning that I'm in the UK so the options might be different. That remote access would be nice though 😁
