Re: UHF TV transmitter.
No, the ones you see now aren't UHF transmitters. They are a twin box setup which communicates using non broadcast frequencies. One of the boxes is connected to your digibox etc. and the other to a TV in another room. Those are perfectly legal.

Re: UHF TV transmitter.
I think that we need to differentiate between 'Videosenders' and UHF transmitters.
That's where things have started to become confused here. It seems to me that they are two different things in the eyes of the law. The legislation is very carefully worded, it excludes amateur bands and ties it squarely (in my view) to domestic situations using 'videosenders' (a sales and marketing term, no doubt). My own 'UHF transmitters' are thus perfectly legal - they're not 'videosenders' and not used to air, or are legal as outside the frquency range specified (they're 70 cm amateur band). The Wireless Telegraphy Act is powerful enough in itself to stop pirates and doesn't need the help of this 'hole plugging' legislation. It was designed for a specific purpose. BTW, there is an earlier thread on this topic. Best regards, Paul M |

Re: UHF TV transmitter.
I remember Watchdog once featured UHF video senders, there was a concern they could be used to set up pirate TV stations that led to their swift banning.

Re: UHF TV transmitter. (Micro UHF Analog TV transmitter).
The link posted in post #20 clearly states that the device linked to in post #1 cannot legally be used in the UK.
What the situation is in Spain, where the OP resides, I don't know. Forum rules state:- Quote:
