I bought these to shoot live video, and stream wireless over to video projectors. Works great until someone walks (or stands) in front of the unit.

Not necessarily blaming it on the device, but I couldn't get it to work, so I returned it. Therefore, not very user friendly.

I ordered this item from the online catalog. The unit in the store was from 2006. When the online item arrived at the store for me to pick up, it was the same old version. The catalog image shows a newer model. I canceled my order and purchased an alternate item (elsewhere) - that works as advertised.

Couldn't get a clear signal even with the units 20 feet from each other with clear line-of-sight. Too bad, was hoping this would have saved me from running a cable into my kitchen.

Great for transmitting to an old style tv with just stereo. This device does not transmit HD or 5.1 SURROUND SOUND signals. It's old tech and too expensive for what it does.

Too much interference
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Bought this a couple months ago so I could watch TV in the kitchen while I'm cooking, since I don't really have room for a set top box there. It was easy to set up. Initally it worked pretty well. The picture and sound were not great but at least I could watch whatever station I set the cable to in the family room. The only two issues then were a slight delay if I had the family room TV on (which isn't necessary), and huge interference from the microwave. After a few weeks I started to get interference ALL the time, both picture and sound. The picture kind of reminds me of old TV's when the vertical hold needed to be adjusted. Total distance from the receiver is 25 feet and one wall. Now, of course, the 30 day return policy has expired so I'm stuck with it. The product is a great idea, but it just doesn't work well. I feel like I wasted my money for the Terk, as well as the small TV I bought for to use with it.

It works but a few drawbacks
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
We wanted to put cable in one of our upstairs bedrooms. After having two different professionals try and fail to find a way to wire the room with coax, we then looked for a wireless option. The Terk system does work. We have it setup in our basement to transmit a cable signal straight up to the 2nd floor bedroom. Picture is clear and the IR extender allows us to control the box in the basement. Now the draw backs. Using your microwave severely interferes with the picture so just know to make popcorn before watching a movie ;) The other drawback is the connections. RCA jacks in 2011? Really? That's it, only RCA (Yellow, Red, and White). In our case we needed to hook it up to a Comcast digital converter box which only had coax connections. to get it to work we had to employ another old piece of technology, namely a VCR to use it as an RF Demodulator (Coax to RCA). So with the Comcast box to VCR to Transmitter to Receiver to HDTV we finally have TV in a bedroom with no cable jack. Horray!

What an improvement from my old sender/receiver un
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I had a sender/receiver unit from Radio Shack that finally gave out after about 10 years. It had a pretty lousy picture and whenever the microwave went on, we got a very noisey TV! This unit installs easily, works beautifully and the picture is as good as the one on the sending TV and there is no problem when the microwave is running! It is such a pleasure to be able to watch the same program in the kitchen as my husband is watching in the Den, whether it's cable, Roku, or DVD. Or, I can watch a movie on ROKU, a DVD or the TV while my husband is using another video device. It's pretty cool what you can do without cable access.
