You have chosen DVB-T, a TV standard which, even in combination with an adapted indoor antenna such as Kathrein‘s BZD-series, will provide you with optimum reception, with no ghosting or any of the other disadvantages of conventional TV viewing. If you will not be watching the television for a longer period, you should disconnect your equipment from the power supply to save energy. -
