Directional TV Antenna DIPOL 1/5-12/DAB — outdoor directional antenna for FM/DAB/TV reception

DIPOL 1/5-12/DAB is an outdoor directional TV antenna designed for reception of terrestrial television, FM radio and DAB digital audio broadcasts. The antenna concentrates reception from a preferred direction to increase useful signal level and reduce interference from other directions, making it suitable for locations where targeted over‑the‑air reception is required. Its weather‑resistant construction and compact form factor enable installation on rooftop masts or external mounting points for residential or small commercial setups.

Advantages

The antenna provides directional gain across TV, FM and DAB bands, improving reception quality in areas with moderate signal levels. Its focused reception pattern reduces multipath interference and unwanted signals from off‑axis sources. Constructed for outdoor use, the antenna features corrosion‑resistant materials and a design that withstands typical weather conditions. The compact size and standard mounting interface simplify installation and alignment on masts.

Suitable for

• Receiving terrestrial UHF/VHF TV channels in suburban and rural areas
• Reception of FM radio broadcasts
• DAB digital radio reception where DAB services are available
• Small residential rooftop or balcony installations
• Small commercial or utility installations needing directional reception

Key specifications

• Reception types: terrestrial TV, FM, DAB
• Directional design for focused reception and interference rejection
• Outdoor‑rated construction suitable for mast or wall mounting
• Compact physical footprint for easier installation in limited spaces
• Corrosion‑resistant materials for extended outdoor use

How to use

Mount the antenna on a suitable mast or bracket at a height and location with the clearest line of sight toward the broadcast transmitters. Securely fasten the antenna using the provided mounting interface and ensure all mechanical fittings are tightened. Run a coaxial cable from the antenna feed to the indoor receiver or distribution system, using appropriate weatherproofing at the entry point. Align the antenna by slowly rotating it while monitoring signal strength or channel quality on the receiver until the best reception is achieved. After alignment, tighten mounting hardware and seal cable entry points to prevent water ingress.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, place the antenna as high as practical and clear of large obstructions such as trees or adjacent buildings. Use a good‑quality coaxial cable and minimize cable length to reduce signal loss; if signals are weak or multiple outlets are required, consider adding a compatible masthead amplifier or distribution amplifier. Periodically inspect mounting hardware and cable connections for corrosion or damage and reseal as needed to maintain reliable reception.
