Hi all!
I've got a few questions to ask.
I got one of those 2 din DVD/ TV sets for my car. The set has a 2 x 3.5mm plugs for the TV antenna. I'm currently shopping for an antenna that would fit my set. I've narrowed it down to 2 types of antenna both with boosters.
After looking around I found that there are 2 and 4 heads/ plugs for these types of antennas. My question is should I get a 4 head/jack antenna and split or unsplit them to a 2 head one to fit my unit. Or just get a 2 head antenna?
The problem is that a 4 plug antenna is more expensive and I don't want to spent more than I have to if a 2 jack antenna should work the same. Due to me channelling 4 plugs into 2 plugs.
So in my case as the DVD/ TV set has only 2 inputs for the antenna and if I get a 4 plug antenna and channelled it into 2 would the reception be the same as just using a 2 head antenna? The thing is that 2 plugs antenna have 2 antennas, while the 4 head ones have 4 antennas. With me using just 2 plugs in the end, would I benefit from having more antennas or there would be no difference with an antenna with just 2 heads?
Any one can help or knows stuff on antennas?
Really would appreciate some help! Thanx guys!
Cheers!
