AVANTEK AR51 Active DVB-T HDTV TV aerial indoor antenna with 20dB amplifier for Digital TV Tuner (Electronics)

Customer Review

I could test the AR51 DVB-T antenna of Avantek detail and you want / like to describe my experience with it here.

The antenna is delivered in a cardboard box with a Quick Start Guide in English and German.
This is quite well translated and easy to understand.

Commissioning is virtually self-explanatory.
Simply the coax cable from the antenna into the junction box, the mains plug into the wall socket and then the junction with the second coaxial connector plug it into the aerial socket of the TV (or with one additional cable).

The two antennas are each composed of four segments and can be extended up to 50cm in length and move freely to the left and right.

Since we all have the same problem of only one satellite cable via the separate satellite receivers in our TVs, simultaneously watch and record is not possible.
Because of the different planes of polarization which is not at a normal single-cable solution simply satellite.

Since the TV's but the antenna input is previously interrupted, an alternative reception via DVB-T offers.
At our 32 inch Samsung TV, I have a test basis before a homemade antenna from an old coax cable used (is a guide to the Internet available).
The search of these cheap and passive solution brought nine stations, one of which occurred between formation of small blocks at three in good weather.
In bad weather, the reception was generally only a matter of luck.

This antenna 21 channels were found, some double and some regional programs undisplayable Internet programs were present.
Regardless of the weather conditions, I am getting this station now represented almost perfectly.
Only Kika and 3Sat are sometimes unstable when it's overcast or raining.
According to the DVB-T reception forecast from the Internet but we are also in the border area of ​​the house and reception would have actually received via roof antenna.
In this respect I am very pleased with the outcome, as other active antennas have so far brought no better result here.

The power consumption is about one watt, what expected in continuous operation on an annualized basis just over two euros electricity costs.

So I can recommend this DVB-T antenna of Avantek in total.
Since it is also offers the option to future DVB-T2 HDTV with the value for money and perfectly fine.
From me therefore like 5 star.

I hope this review could assist you in your buying decision ...
