That makes sense then - because I had the same
problem with the output (being used as an output)
getting a bad signal when connecting the input
to the other output.
So RS selling the one as a "combiner" at a higher
price is just really a marketing gimmick I assume?
The higher price could be due to the increased bandwidth that the splitter/combiner will pass. It can also be due to increased sheilding to prevent ingress of interference to the RF signal. More expensive splitters can also provide more isolation between the legs to prevent one leg from interfering with the other.
Other then that, yes, it is marketing to increase the price.
