Important notes on DVB-T reception:
DVB-T reception depends on location and might be impaired by thick or steel-enforced walls, and high neighbouring buildings. In such environments, an outdoor/roof-top DVB-T antenna is required. Mobile reception of DVB-T, e.g. in a car or train, is generally not possible.
