    I have not used this a great deal since purchase but I have tested it out and it performs nicely. Build quality seems really nice too.

    Im a field tech with comcast and a few of my colleagues have these as an efficient and space saving way to quickly tone out a line. because were constantly moving around, getting into tiny spaces and whatnot, i got an awesome tiny toolpouch to put on my belt with my essential cable prep tools. I was recommended this, and got it, and was so excited to test it out. in the instructions it gives you a few examples of the different colors the led can give and the different sounds it can make depending on the continuity of the coax line. Well, while using it to tone out a line in a customers home that has Dish TV equipment on one of their lines. Welp, that line happened to be the first one i used to test out my new baby. and welp, guess what? THE SPEAKER BLEW!! didnt even have this for a full day and BAM! its done. I mean, come on, the toners we get, the yellow ones that come with the 5 different resistant caps? at least itll say Short or Voltage or something that lets you quickly identify that line as one with a splitter or a satellite tv box on it. but this little pocket tester? Im really extremely disappointed in this purchase, waste of money.

    Trying to figure out which cable goes to which outlet is almost impossible without this tester. It works well, and includes a female to female adapter to handle various situations.

    We have a moderately sized home with coaxial cables in most of the rooms. The cables all feed to the attic- this continuity tester worked really well to figure out which coaxial cables in the attic went to which room.

    Unit is easy to use, reliable, and well built. I would recommend it to anyone who is poking around the house.

Designed to identify cables in an MDU and detect troublesome short circuits, this pocket continuity tester and toner is perfect for testing cables up to 5,000 ft (1,500 m) on the go. This tester features the following:

Loud tone identifies line carrying signal
LED light indicates splitters, DC shorts, and other self-grounding devices in cable
Manual ON/OFF switch preserves battery life
Right angle male push-on connector is ideal for working in confined areas
Female push-on connector is perfect for speed toning
Accurate up to 5,000 feet (1,500 m)
Connect the toner without emitting a tone under discretion
Includes (1) AAA 1.5V battery and (1) pocket clip

PT-100 Instructions
1. Unscrew the speaker located on the base of the unit.
NOTE: The base also houses the ON-OFF switch and powers on the unit when the speaker is removed.
2. The barrel of the device houses a DC transmitter and male F connector push-on fitting. Attach this
fitting to a female F connector port.
3. Touch the speaker to the end of each cable. When the correct cable is found, you will hear an audible tone.
4. When finished, screw the speaker into the base to power off the unit.

How to Read Results
1. If the cable condition is good, the LED will illuminate and the Speaker will emit a tone.
2. If there is an open circuit, the LED will be off and the Speaker will not emit a tone.
3. If there is a short circuit, the LED will be on, and the Speaker will not emit a tone.
4. If testing on a cable with Voltage over 4V, the LED will be off, and the Speaker will emit a tone.
Note that the pitch will change and the volume will increase in this case.
