About this product

First of all, this product requires you to be located in the United States or Canada and using an HDHomerun networked digital TV tuner to watch over the air programming using an antenna and have an iPhone or iPod Touch.

I have submitted a new version that should also work in Australia.

If you are one of the dozens of people who meet these criteria, you absolutely should buy this product. It will make adjusting your over the air receiving equipment much faster and more precise. 

I only wish I had had Signal GH when I set up my home’s antenna system. It would have saved a lot of trouble. I tried a new pre-amp, I wrote an Applescript to tell me the signal strength, and took many dangerous trips to my roof before settling on a really big antenna. I’m lucky I neither fell nor dropped something—like an iPhone—on a passerby. 

Having a tool to visually display signal quality over time is handy. And Signal GH will even change your channels in a pinch.http://www.silicondust.com/products/hdhomerunhttp://sprinkleofcocoa.blogspot.com/2006/06/channel-master-7775-versus-radio-shack.htmlhttp://sprinkleofcocoa.blogspot.com/2006/05/using-eyetv-21-to-orient-roof-antenna.htmlhttp://www.solidsignal.com/prod_display.asp?PROD=ANC4228shapeimage_4_link_0shapeimage_4_link_1shapeimage_4_link_2shapeimage_4_link_3
