USES of UHF Grid TV Aerial

  • General purpose UHF TV aerial which will work with any UHF transmission
  • Ideal for use in where interference is a major issue
  • Ideal for when the aerial must be mounted in the attic

ADVANTAGES of UHF Grid TV Aerial

  • This is a general purpose High Gain Aerial suited to all UHF transmissions
  • Little technical knowledge needed to get good results for the above reason
  • Can save money by reducing the need for amplifiers and distribution systems
  • May work in attic where WB contract aerial would not give good results

DISADVANTAGES of UHF Grid TV Aerial

  • Cost: Far more expensive than a 10 element contract aerial
  • If mounting an aerial outside in a poor reception aerial - a high gain 32 Element aerial will give better results.
  • A correctly selected and installed Grouped 10 Element contract aerial can give equally good results
  • Takes up 80cm of pole space compared to only 30cm for a 10 Element contract aerial - an issue when space is tight on your aerial pole

  • Length of RG6 Satellite Cable

Steps to Install

  1. Pull down the bracing brackets on the top and bottom of the dipoles unit
  2. Unscrew the wing nuts and bolt the free end of the bracket onto the grid assembly
  3. Using a snips, pare back 2cm from the end of the RG6 cable and wrap the earth cable around the base of the cable leaving at least 1cm of the central core cable exposed
  4. Pull the plastic cover off the front of the aerial assembly
  5. Slot the end of the RG6 cable through the base of the aerial assembly and into the fixing nuts for the earth and core wires
  6. Use the screwdriver to tighten the screws so that both the earth and core wires are securely screwed in place and are not touching each other.
  7. Click the plastic cover back on
  8. Clamp the pole bracket onto the back of the grid section of the aerial -  it can be used to mount aerial vertically or horizonitally

Great product great reception
This is an excellent product especially for poor signal area's. Large trees were blocking the signal until I got this wideband grid aerial. Which now works perfectly. The Youtube instructions on this site were a huge help in assembly and set up. The item was well packaged and the dispatch very prompt. Thank you again for a great product and a great service.
Prompt dispatch. As described, will be dealing with this company again in future.
Very good Arial worked very well down west cork with marst amp was talk there was no signal but bigo every one happy
This a great UHF aerial to receive UK Freeview channels combined with a high gain mast head amp. on the east coast of Ireland.
Just as described, after reading earlier reviews I was hoping that it would work in my attic also and to my delight it did. All of our stations are crystal clear. Highly recommended and quick delivery
Easy to order gain is very good on this antenna uhf high band can work just as well in an attic or outdoors pending on the area you are in.
I am in the Naas area very good signal from 3 rock or kippure repeter.
Would recommend this site for quality and good service.
very quick delivery and exactly as ordered
Works perfect in abbeyfeale.. West limerick area.
I had never before set up an aerial in my attic.
I saw the youtube videos and it was dead easy to follow.
I used a short pole bracket to attach to rafter... I didnt even have to adjust position for saorview channels.. My tv scanned and picked up all the channels crystal clear... Well impressed with build quality and easy setup... And best of all... No hassle...
I purchased one of these aerials recently with a mast head amp. It worked perfect in an area with a lot of hills and trees. The saorview channels are perfect now.
