Outdoor television antenna Televes 149221 Mono, 23 dB gain, 963×552×550 mm, orange

Televes 149221 Mono is an outdoor television antenna engineered for reliable reception of terrestrial broadcast signals. With a peak gain of 23 dB and compact dimensions of 963×552×550 mm, this orange-coloured antenna is built to balance robustness and compactness. Its V-type structure—two vertically stacked Yagi elements driven in phase—delivers improved signal capture for UHF channels while keeping the overall length moderate. The antenna incorporates selective filtering for UHF reception that provides high rejection for frequencies above channel 48 while maintaining a flat response across channels 21–48, making it suitable in environments affected by LTE700 and the 2nd Digital Dividend.

Advantages

The design achieves a favourable ratio between gain and physical length, providing effective UHF performance without an oversized footprint. Integrated filtering reduces interference from signals beyond channel 48, helping preserve picture and sound quality for the pass-band channels. Its construction supports outdoor mounting on rooftops or masts, and the compact VZenit layout simplifies installation and positioning compared with longer Yagi arrays. The antenna’s 23 dB gain improves reception range and signal margin for marginal broadcast coverage areas.

Suitable for

• Reception of terrestrial UHF digital TV channels (channels 21–48)
• Installation on rooftops, chimneys or masts to improve weak or variable signals
• Environments with nearby LTE700 transmitters where out-of-band rejection is desirable
• Residential and small commercial installations where compact antenna size is preferred

Key specifications

• Type: outdoor mono television antenna with V-type (stacked Yagi) structure
• Gain: 23 dB
• Frequency suitability: UHF pass-band with emphasis on channels 21–48
• Out-of-band filtering: high rejection for frequencies above channel 48 (reduces LTE700 interference)
• Dimensions (approx.): 963 mm (width) × 552 mm (height) × 550 mm (depth)
• Colour: orange
• Mounting: designed for rooftop or mast installation

How to use

Mount the antenna on a suitably rated mast or rooftop bracket at a height and orientation that provides a clear line of sight toward the broadcast transmitter. Secure the antenna using the supplied or appropriate clamps and ensure mechanical stability against wind. Run a quality coaxial cable from the antenna feed to the indoor receiver or distribution amplifier, observing proper waterproofing at the outdoor connector and grounding the mast and feedline according to local electrical codes. Fine-tune the antenna direction while monitoring signal strength and quality on the television or a signal meter until optimal reception is achieved.

Usage recommendations

For best results, place the antenna as high as practical and away from large metallic obstructions. Use low-loss coaxial cable and maintain correct grounding. In cases of very weak signals, consider adding a low-noise masthead amplifier compatible with UHF frequencies, placed close to the antenna to minimize cable losses. Verify antenna alignment after strong weather events and re-tighten mounting hardware periodically.
