Great video! The only thing bothering me abit is the fact that the antenna was a few inches from the top, the bar blocking the sinal abit ... Obviously we dont get enough info on the distance to each masts on each scenario, the antenna signal patterns and dbi's are important aswell :) I havent looked at that perticular brand, however Poynting and Quwireless have great motorhome produtcts...

Hi, thanks for watching! I totally get what you're saying - the placement isn’t perfect, but with the solar panel, roof bars, and the slope, I didn’t really have many options! It’s been working pretty well so far, though, as you saw in the video, there are occasional anomalies.
As a side note, I don’t really use the roof bars, so I might remove them someday. Then again, they do protect my skylight and antenna if I ever drive under a low barrier as they sit slightly higher than both 😂

Did you consider that the antenna could be faulty? I’ve purchased the same set up from an eBay seller. I have been testing the unit before I fit it and so far the antenna seems to attenuate the signal, never boost it. How are you finding the system? Great video.

Hi 👋🏻 thanks for watching. We went camping shortly after uploading this video, and we were in an area where I couldn't get any signal on my phone at all. Using the antenna we managed to stream live TV for over an hour in HD with no problems, so it's definitely been worth it for us! On the odd occasion where my phone performs better, I just use that. It's strange, as you'd think the antenna would always do a better job but I'm guessing it's something to do with supported network bands, or perhaps the position of the van. Either way, it's good to have options 👌🏻
