ATSC On GQRX Software Defined Radio - A tool to test your connection to improve TV Reception

#Linux #Atsc #SDR #GQRX Doing Neato things in Linux This video shows how you can use a Software Defined Radio Spectrum Analyzer as a tool to optimize your over-the-air tv antenna. In the recording of this video I saw that I did have a bad splitter and coax rg6 cable end. The most optimum signal was not getting to all the TV's in the house. I was able to improve TV reception by looking at the increase in signal quality!

Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) standards are an American set of standards for digital television transmission over terrestrial, cable and satellite networks. It is largely a replacement for the analog NTSC standard and, like that standard, is used mostly in the United States, Mexico and Canada. Japan and several former NTSC users have not used ATSC during their digital television transition, because they adopted their own system called ISDB.

The ATSC standards were developed in the early 1990s by the Grand Alliance, a consortium of electronics and telecommunications companies that assembled to develop a specification for what is now known as HDTV. The standard is now administered by the Advanced Television Systems Committee. It includes a number of patented elements, and licensing is required for devices that use these parts of the standard. Key among these is the 8VSB modulation system used for over-the-air broadcasts. ATSV[clarification needed] technology was primarily developed with patent contributions from LG Electronics, which holds most of the patents for the ATSV standard.
