  Important notes on DVB-T reception: 1- Please make sure that good quality DVB-T service is available in your region. Latest information about DVB-T service availability by region is available on the web at www.dvb.org or www.digitaltelevision.gov.uk. 2- The reception of DVB-T signals is highly dependent on the reception environment. Negative factors such as thick or steel-enforced walls, ceiling andsurfaces as well as tall neighbouring buildings could prevent reception of the DVB-T signal. 3- We recommend using a DVB-T roof antenna to enable a reliable reception. Existing roof antennas, which have been used for terrestrial analogue TV may not be useable or only be useable after readjustment. 4- Pinnacle’s portable, active DVB-T antenna offers good reception performance only when used in proper reception environments. This antenna can not replace a dedicated DVB-T roof antenna under poor reception conditions. 5- Mobile reception of DVB-T content, e.g. in a car or train, is in general not possible.
