          It does the job, but for the price, it should last at least a year. Have tried this product twice but no more. Will buy a different brand.

            The whole concept is great, however, I purchased this product to make life easier. How frustrating to hook it up and it doesn't work, at all, right out of the package!

                  Very simple. Worked just as it should have, to switch between two incoming coax cables to one TV 75ohm port.

                  Comments about RadioShack High Isolation A/B Switch:

                  I bought 2 of these for my mother to make it easier to switch from cable to dvd player and cable to MSNTV.
                  After six months the first one broke and a month later the second one broke.
                  It is not a very good design. I bought cheap A/B switches from a discount store that work great!

                    Used to split signal from satellite reciever to multiple TVs. Functions well and now is 2 years old. Will be purchasing another for use with other video devices.

                          Bought this as it is about the only switch for coax RG-59U available. Works for a month or two, then dies. Cannot be repaired (sealed case). Heavy item - contains rocks? Dealers will NOT replace/exchange for free. So, [$] is the cost per year to use this item, replacing it every 2 months. In any language, that is a RIPOFF!!! SHAME on you Radio Shack!!!!

                          There were two of these A/B switches in the store. The first one on the shelf had an A-switch that was not in place. I went for the second one, which appeared to be good. When we hooked it up, there was a lined pattern on the screen, and no picture at all on the A-side.
