Not just for SUVs! of antennas

I am using these with an amplified Winegard antenna installed in the attic. It doesn't come with a 12 volt power supply so I googled it and bought it, cut off the end of the mini plug and then crimped the ends of the spade terminal. The instructions say 350 mAh; by the way, should not exceed 500 mAh. There's also no case to store this unit, so I bought a surface mount outlet for a nearby attic wall. The description also says 10dB of gain is available, but it's actually 20dB. I particularly like

Pros
  • Big selection
Cons
  • Some little things

Not for the average bear

I was very disappointed with this machine. Didn't even attempt to connect once I unpacked it, read the instructions, and then realized that connecting the 12V input was going to be an impediment to the show. Instead of a coax connector for the 12V transformer, there were two flat connection points that didn't work in my application. I wish the online description of the food requirements was more specific. I really needed a meter to measure the signal levels for different channels, but I was…

Pros
  • Sequins
Cons
  • Ribbon

Works as expected - accessories and consumables

Apparently when installing the first signal counter I ordered I blew a fuse. I have no idea how I managed to lose power.

The documentation explains how to activate the display. When the display turns off, a message will appear indicating that the amplifier will remain on. I believe that switching to park mode disables the signal…

Pros
  • understandable even for the old
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Homemade OTA Portable Signal Meter

I need to adjust my OTA TV antennas for better reception but I don't want to spend more than $300 for a professional handheld signal meter. I've tried cheap handheld devices with a meter but they pick up any RF signal like cell towers, FM radio stations and anything else including TV stations. As a result, I adapted the Winegard Sensor Pro to work as a portable meter that I can use on the roof. As it was designed to fit a standard wall hole I fitted a plastic electrical box along with a 12v…

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • I'll add it later
