Baron Super Antenna

  @KryzRhonn
  
  I guess it's called an amplifier but CDR-King's product labels it as signal booster.
  
  I was wondering if it's effective. My problem with my mom's Baron antenna, is sometimes certain channels do not have good signal. I'm not sure yet if the direction of the antenna moves(whether by wind or birds) or something might be disrupting it. So I was thinking either buying a signal booster OR buying a new Baron antenna because there might be a problem with it already. Hindi pa nachecheck kasi walang gusto umakyat ng bubong lol.

  How interesting, kaya lang bakit na-cut o walang continuation ang topic, sayang :(

  may lightning arrestor ba ang baron antenna?

• dm1179 on 17 Dec 13 @ 04:27 PM #

  a lightning arrester is a separate device. walang TV antenna na meron kasama agad nito.

  with regards sa signal amplifier as described by hanapparts, interested din ako with that of CDRKing, wish kong i-install sa house ng lola ko in the province.
  
  may concern lang ako: mas magiging susceptible ba sa kidlat ang antenna kapag kinabitan ng booster?

• dm1179 on 17 Dec 13 @ 05:31 PM #

  ^adding a booster will not attract lightnings. there is no such thing.
  
  Myth: Structures with metal, or metal on the body (jewelry, cell phones, Mp3 players, watches, etc), attract lightning.
  
  Fact: Height, pointy shape, and isolation are the dominant factors controlling where a lightning bolt will strike. The presence of metal makes absolutely no difference on where lightning strikes. Mountains are made of stone but get struck by lightning many times a year.

  ^ thank you sir dm for the counsel, now my plan is set ^_^

• polka on 17 Dec 13 @ 05:49 PM #

  depende yan sa equipment na ginagmit, anything that is conductive highlt elevated things can be striked by lighning by 1/1000
  although this chance may get hight to 300/1000 when the antenna is used by a tranceiver device. TV had only RF receivers inside so you dont have to worry about it.
  
  Tranceivers tends to generate (+) charge over-the-air making the radio signals, and this (+) charge are very susceptible to lightning, it follow the floe of (+) charge particles all way to your antenna. That\'s why transceiver towers always had a grounding installed on it. Any transceiver device are highly suscptible from WiMax Antenna (that\'s why there\'s a warning on the modem that you need to disconnect the antenna during lightning or turn off the device) 3G/4G external antenna, RF radio. etc..

  Any reviews pa regarding sa signal ng Baron Antenna. Thanks...

• dm1179 on 16 May 14 @ 02:50 PM #

  ^baron antenna receives signal and do not transmit signal. reception is dependent on height of your antenna, how far from building and obstructions, and how near to the broadcasting stations. if pangit ang reception ng baron antenna mo, it is not the fault of the antenna, but of the 3 factors i listed.

  @dm1179
  
  Kapag meron ka na nung ISDB-T tuner/box:
  
  1. Mas maganda pa rin ba ang reception mo kapag naka Baron antenna or any ordinary antenna will do?
  2. Kelangan pa bang ayusin yung position ng Baron antenna(e.g. ikutin sa tamang position) or wala na dahil digital na ito?

• dm1179 on 24 May 14 @ 07:33 PM #

  1. Mas maganda pa rin ba ang reception mo kapag naka Baron antenna or any ordinary antenna will do?

  
  not sure what you mean by ordinary antenna. i consider Baron antenna as an ordinary antenna lang.
  
  

  2. Kelangan pa bang ayusin yung position ng Baron antenna(e.g. ikutin sa tamang position) or wala na dahil digital na ito?

  
  mas kailangan na tamang position kapag digital.
  
  kapag analog at mali ang position, magkakaroon ng display sa TV kahit malabo or pixelated na video. kapag inikot mo antenna, unti-unting lilinaw ang video until maisakto mo position ng antenna.
  
  kapag digital at mali ang position, wala talagang mag-display na video sa TV. pero kung sakto ang position ng antenna, malinaw na video agad ang magdisplay.

  @dm1179 salamat sa info. Meron na kasi akong antenna kaya lang yung mumurahin lang tapos mataas na yung kinalalagyan niya (nasa bubong ng 3rd floor) ang problema hindi masagap yung channel 41 (TV5 sister channel). Ang balak ko sana palitan yung matching transformer niya at pati yung cable na nakakabit doon. Tanong ko lang mataas ba ang chance na masagap yung ibang channel kapag pinalitan ko ng matching tranformer at magandang wire yung mumurahin lang na antenna?? Salamat uli.

• dm1179 on 26 May 14 @ 02:18 PM #

  ^anong type of antenna wire ba gamit mo? if coax cable ang gamit, that\'s 75 ohms. if twin-lead, that\'s 300 ohms.
  
  75ohm input usually ang mga TV sets. need mo ng matching transformer (300ohm-to-75ohm) if ang gamit mo is twin-lead. hindi ito needed if coaxial cable na gamit mo.
  
  nasasagap ba ng kapitbahay mo ang channel 41? if yes, compare mo antenna na gamit nyo kung magkapareho ng length ng elements. UHF channels (ch 15-51) require shorter elements vs VHF (ch 2-13) channels.
  
  if bibili ka ng coaxial cable, make sure to get RG6 which is thicker than RG59. both are 75-ohms.

• rhael on 26 May 14 @ 07:09 PM #

  ^ Thanks uli sa info. Yung nakalagay na matching transformer sa mumurahin na antenna manipis kasi ang cable (btw coax cable gamit ko yung ginamit namin dati sa sky cable). Kaya balak ko bumili ng bagong matching transformer then kabit ko yung coax cable na dati naming ginamit sa skycable. Thanks uli.
  
  BTW wala kasi akong masyadong kakilala sa lugar namin kaya hindi ko macompare yung signal ng antenna nila, pero yung sa kapatid ko nasasagap naman niya kasi ako ang nagkabit ng antenna niya.

• Jr05 on 28 Jun 14 @ 08:52 PM #

  Nasira kasi ung mumurahin n antenna ko,nasira ung transformer,nabali ung 1 mahabang aluminun tube nia..pero nkakasagap p namn ng mga channels.malinaw p rin ang ch.32(abs) at ch.30,mejo malabo ang ch.10..taga nueva ecija ako,ano kya mgandang antenna para sa led tv ko?..tenx s sasagot.

• NightSpirit on 14 Dec 14 @ 11:41 AM #

  Ano kaya ang OK na antena sa mga probinsya? Wala kasing access sa mga cable company.

• tracer1 on 14 Dec 14 @ 12:33 PM #

  since directional lahat ng antenna, naalala ko nun 80\'s sa mla yung mga kapit bahay namin na may kaya sa buhay may rotatable antenna tas remote nasa loob, this days wala nakong makitang binebentang antenna rotator. meron man rare na.

• mythloaf on 14 Dec 14 @ 01:30 PM #

  Ang baron antenna ay isang antenna na nakakasagap ng signal ng antenna sa kapit bahay ni athena na nag lilinis ng kubeta.

  lol meron nga sa cdr king eh.

  meron na po isdb-t antenna fb lang isdb-t antenna check nyo may posting na
