There are no special antennas for DVB-T. For collection of digital television, the same antennas
as analog TV reception. There is no need to change the antenna system. It is worth to check the
quality and condition of the plant, which has so far been used for analog TV reception.
Reception problems can be weathered with old antenna systems, or grid antennas. It is
recommended to use directional antennas with signal amplifier, depending on the particular
situation you may also establish impedance transformer. Indoor antenna may be used only in
areas with high signal intensity.

local technician. Before connecting or altering cabling, disconnect the receiver from the
mains !!!

connections are applicable for your receiver!
