Has anyone tested this device for RFI? Near AM-BC, SWL, &amp; VHF-UHF receivers?

I am a Ham Radio Operator and I have not had any problems with it using RF from 1.8 Mhz to 450 Mhz. Our microwave is about 10 feet from the device and no ill effects have been noted. There are three TV Station transmitters and two FM transmitters located within 5 miles of me. No problems noticed here yet. I have had the device for about three weeks.

Each of the Radio Frequency (RF) Receivers I have received (some 7 now) have each been different and have not shown the RF used. One could write the manufacturer and request a batch that used the same RF, but it is not currently accommodated at the retail level.

I just ran through the SW bands again - it is now 9:30ish pm ET and I got 25 good stations. Either my location is better, or my radio is just a lucky example and the quality control was not good. My USB and SD card slots work - both in stereo. I am sorry yours isn't performing as well.

I'm using it as an ATSC (HD digital signal antenna). From what I can see when I do a channel scan, I get no VHF/UHF signals. Then again, that may be because there are no broadcasters in my area that still broadcast VHF/UHF.

Do you use a base station with rf to ir(do you point the remote to your equipment)? Also, you need the program from urc to troubleshoot/program and i doubt you can get it. If you can't find a local installer i might be able to help.

Yes I have a VHF antenna and UHF and combine them. If it is a UHF/VHF combo + another UHF/VHF combos idk. Should work fine though, can't see it not. Pretty simple device.

Not specified in product documentation. I assume it meets the UHF/VHF frequency requirements for device purpose. (http://www.vlf.it/frequency/bands.html)

You would most likely have a high SWR and a poor communication experience. An antenna matcher might help some, but only experimentation will tell!

I cannot answer, I returned the device for poor RF performance. It would not tune broadcast TV in my area.

keep looking, you just need a uhf amplifier, find one at radio shack. or even a old tv vhf,uhf amplifier,thats built in antena...

I agree with Chris, I've only used the RF transmitter to broadcast the sound the radio of our vehicle. The IR should work just fine.

To add to my previous response to the question from Mr goddard, I would add that I receive all available channels from 3.1 thru 54.6 which covers VHF and UHF. But again, check with the mfr of the item.

It has a better receiver than my radio shack radio. I was impressed with the clarity of am, fm as well. 100 miles seems like a possibility if the broadcast station is a strong one.

It all depends on the repeater and location, it is also possible to buy a better antenna for the unit (need an adaptor) - I am able to hit a mountain repeaters 20+ miles away so terrain is more important in this instance. UHF and VHF seem to both work reasonably well - a lot of radio for a few $$ - I find I'm using it more than my expensive Kenwood or Yaseu do to low cost and small size - no biggy if I drop it or it gets stolen - be sure and get the programming cable to make life much easier - 73 KC0OH

Probably has, why not? Coax is just an RF pipe. I'm using it for 0 - 30 mHz receive only.

Yes! Significantly I might add... The main issue is the interfacing to a 2.4GHz source... Most items don't have a connector to plug into... I believe the FCC has something to do with this! Solve that,,, and you can do Wifi perhaps at 1000 feet or so in one specific direction... So my main point is you must have a detachable antenna on the targeted device you wish to boost the dB's with... "Got it!" This Amt. use SMA Screw type-of miniature connectors... The other being snap-on... I will add that this style of SM_'s is the best of this family! So start looking for an matching adapter for all else...

D~ did you get this and does it work for you? I am also in SJ and looking at getting an antenna. Thx!!!
