Hi Bjoern,
 
Yes. On our FireFly series GPSDO I get up to 45dB signal to noise  ratio 
with a passive 1-to-4 splitter following the Agilent active  splitter.
 
I think there is something going on with the Thunderbolts such as the  
antenna sense circuit not working properly etc, please also see my other email  
following this one.
 
bye,
Said

Did you check that you have enough signal  power for the Tbolt, when
cascading (passive)  splitters?
