The importance of the antenna in terrestrial television signal coverage drive testing

The signal coverage analysis or drive test is essential in the process of locate shadowed areas in terrestrial television broadcasting: A measurement equipment is mounted in a vehicle, connected to a calibrated antenna and it goes through the entire or part of the area radiated from a terrestrial signal emitter. AM-060 antenna for signal coverage analysis does not require installation, it fixes firmly with a magnet and it is an extra compact design safe for driving.

Installing a satellite dish using a TV spectrum analyzer

In this article, we will go through the steps to align a satellite dish. It is very important to use an instrument that offers reliable measures to ensure optimum reception quality not only at the time of installation but also over the lifespan of the installation. Otherwise, weather conditions such as wind or rain may have an impact causing the antenna to lose the signal. Therefore we are going to align a satellite dish using a RANGER Neo spectrum analyzer.
