Labgear LDA204LR 4 Way Distribution Ampliflier VHF/UHF TV Booster - grey & 27866R DVB-T Signal Strength Finder Freeview HD TV Aerial,Grey

Hidden away in the loft it just does what it's supposed to do

I needed a means of feeding the DAB radio signal from the antenna to two rooms. Labgear is a name I have known for many, many years, which is why I chose the LDA204LR unit and with a TWO YEAR warranty the manufacturers have confidence in their product. Unfortunately, ONE WEEK after the two year warranty expired, so did the Labgear LDA204LR. Now, my confidence in Labgear has been dashed.

The unit has all the connection that are needed to distribute TV to several rooms. However the connectors are only soldered to the internal board and you need to be very careful screwing on a cable not to break the connection (one is already loose)

I bought this product to help resolve my aerial problem, was getting intermittent reception from my freeview channels. Initially I thought it was our aerial on the roof which had the problem, as the problem started after gale force winds in the area.I already had an aerial amplifier from another manufacturer, which seemed to have been working fine up to now. I replaced it with this one, now all my channels are back with no interferrence, this product saved me money as I did not have to make a call to a TV aerial specialist.

Purchased this as a replacement for a 9 year old Wolsey amplifier, that linked to four freeview tv’s throughout the house. About 2 months ago, all the tv’s suddenly lost their HD channels, and despite numerous retunes on all tv’s, could not access them again. Additionally other channels had started to pixelate. Although we only live 6 miles from the transmitter, so was frustrated to lose many channels. A little research revealed that this could be due to 4g signals, which would not have been an issue when the original booster was purchased. Thus took a chance that the 4g signal was causing my problems, and purchased this Labgear booster, which has a built in 4g filter. Reconnected all cables to the new booster, plugged in, and retuned all tv’s. To my delight, all tv’s found 158 tv and radio channels (old booster could only find 137 channels). Even better news, the HD channels now worked perfectly again. To summarise, this may or may not be a 4g related issue, but this was a small price to pay to fix my problem.

Easy to set uo. perfect signal on aqll channels

I have a Labgear X beam aerial which I set up in my loft pointing toward the main transmitting station. It served 4 tv's in my home via a labgear splitter which has worked ok for the last 2 years, the 2 tv's closest to the aerial always had good signal, the 3rd would occasionally get interference in bad weather and the 4th, well with all my best intentions I could never get a watchble picture on the BBC channels. This 4th tv is about 15m from the aerial.With spending so much time at home the 4th TV was really annoying me and after adjusting the aerial for the last time and making no improvements I searched for a solution and saw this. I plugged it in my loft right next to the aerial and connected the co ax cables, I turned the tv on to see 100% signal, up from 30% on the worst channels. After a retune of the tvs I picked up another 40 channels.If you're fed up adjusting your aerial to no avail I would strongly recommend buying one of these, did the job for me.Only thing I'm critical of is the short amount of flex on the power cable.

Easy fit , but only 2 Tv's will work the third and 4th has no signal ? So not doing what it says ?
