Seb Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Was thinking of getting one, just wondered if anyone has tried them and if they do a good job? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 If you mean the portable laptop ones, they're great as long as you've got a 10ft aerial as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilli Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 mine works well but the internal aerial that comes with it doesn't pick up anything, works well off of the roof aerial though - handy for recording programs to the hard drive, sometimes I DVD them after too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seb Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 Yeah, was thinking of getting one for my PC so I can watch TV in the bedroom. I could stick the internal antenna outside my window if that would help reception? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 I've got a USB DVB-T unit.... Aerial is a total of about 5 inches long, and it picks up BUGGER all at home, however I keep it in my laptop bag for when I'm travelling... Yes, it works, but signal is a bastard....
