    Best DVB-T INCAR Antenna?

    Hey all,

    i just installed a Hauppauge DEC-2540-T in my car together with my Car PC and BT Carkit. I have cut of the plug from a GSM window antenna for DVB-T reception but when i start driving the reception goes bad after a short while.

    Does anyone know what is a good (and preferable decent priced) DVB-T InCar antenna where the reception also stays good when the car is moving?

    Well..I believe that GSM frequencies are quite far out of range of any type of Digital TV signal, so that antenna shouldn't be doing much of anything for you.

    Also reading around on the forums it seems to me that it's common knowledge that terrestrial digital signals suck when the vehicle is in motion and can only be recieved when motionless.

    Well, i tried it, and when standing still it works fair enough with the GSM antenna.

    And Hirschmann has a DVB-T unit especially for cars and that even works when driving about 150 km/h but that is way to expensive.
