I bought it for the new TV. Specifically because it had protection on the antenna coax, and it was inexpensive. But, when in line with the TV it filters out or does not let through about half of the stations. When I check it with a meter I see that there is no connection between the center contact of the two F connector connections. The shield has continuity but not the signal. Now I know it's not a lightning arrester but was hoping that what got past the arrester at the base of the antenna would be stopped by this.
My question is, should the signal contacts not be connected? I have no other coax surge protectors to test. This thing is made by Monster, is that the problem?
