I have also previously experimented with other, bulky antennas from different manufacturers. With limited success, although lt. Information the gain was higher. The SV 9215 I then experienced a positive surprise. Very good reception power, all channels (27) between 80 u. 90%. Smooth and unobtrusive installation behind the curtain. My initial skepticism when unpacking was already eliminated moment during the search abruptly. The assembly requires some skill. Not for coarse-engine. Very good solution, the amplification of the signal by means of a "T-piece" at the antenna socket on the television and there is supplied with the included AC adapter. Thus the need for an outlet no longer in the field of antenna. Very recommended miserable worth.
