1 out of 5 stars Terk wireless audio/video link   November 17, 2008
This product is not usable. While watching video or listening to audio, don't even think about turning on your microwave; the staic is unbearable. And it interferred with my RF TV remote to the point where I could not change channels. Product returned to vendor.


3 out of 5 stars Prone to Interference   November 4, 2008
This video sender works great -- until you or a neighbor turn on a microwave oven or use a cordless phone. Then the TV picture you're receiving with this device will show constant signs of interference: black bars, flashes of light, snow, you name it. NOT recommended for apartment building residents.

I tried to use the device last night around 11pm watching TV in my bathroom while conducting my endless dental regimen. At that hour, apparently half of NYC is busy making their late-night "booty calls", and the interference in the picture was non-stop.

As others have said, you will also have to turn off your computer's wireless router and postpone any cordless phone conversations while the sender is in use.

We can only hope that as technology opens new frequency spectra, the 2.4 GHz frequency will get quieter as early adopters migrate to higher land... In the meantime, I have to consider this Terk video sender a disappointment.




4 out of 5 stars Works well   October 23, 2008
This works as advertised. I use it on a sat.rec. from a basement to upstairs. It is a little more directional than I would like, but with a little fiddling I got a good, clean, noise free signal.


1 out of 5 stars Terrible product   October 13, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

What a terrible product. I tried all of the channels and the product did not work. Maybe I was missing something, but I tried it in 3 different locations and not one worked well at all. Oh it did work, but AM Radio sounded better than this wireless system. I bought this to distribute computer music during my sister's wedding and the money would have been better thrown away on party favors or at the bachelor party! Unless you are using it to listen to a baseball game and you want the vintage hissing and whining in the background I wouldn't get this!


4 out of 5 stars works as expected.   October 6, 2008
Very easy setup and it works as expected. There is interference when the microwave oven is operated, but other then that, the picture and sound are perfect. Recommended.
