Well i just installed the tv tuner to my DEI MCB1000 VIDEO CONTROLLER, and i bought a xo vision antenna with booster from fry's anybody kno of a better antenna? theres another version of the antenna that i'm gonna try out from fry's but i'm trying to find out what people have done about the reception or how many of you have a tv tuner or even use it?

 

Well how is the reception now?

 

really bad with a lot of noise but i haven't fully mounted the antenna but it seems like i can't even get a good enough signal unless i hold the antenna outside the hatch in a certain way lol..

 

Hmm, Maybe the other antenna would be better. However, isn't this pretty much just a TV set with the old style antennas that is essentially on wheels?

It's been a while since I have dealt with a TV that used an antenna (other than Satellite), and they used to always get bad reception. It seems that it would only be worse if you were moving.

If you are that set on having regular television in your car, and not just a DVD player or a movie viewer, then you should go all out and get satellite TV in your car. That would be pimp.

 

yeah very true.. its old but if i have the option why not use it.. hoepfully theres others that have a working tv in there car, because it seems like most people don't even bother i guess because of dvd's and the bad quality of the tv's, ohh well at least the video module was only $15.99 anybody else have experience?

 

i just have the tv tuner that came with my Valor Unit... it works decently and gets some channels really solidly when standing still. If I am moving I get no signal at ALL. My antenna is like a right angle of wires on the right side of my windsheild... but it wont stay stuck on there and I have been debating on whether i should just uninstall it since I never use it anyway.

 

^^^^ same thing with mine, keeps hanging of the windshield and i'm getting tired of it. I use a powered antenna and the reception is still pretty bad.

 

the worst part is that the sound guys put some glue crap on it to try to get it to stick and the crap is alll over now. I need to see if some goo gone will get rid of it.
