Does anyone know how well the reception is on any of the TV tuners for mobile use? I want to add one to my Kenwood but I've never heard any opinions, good or bad, about any of the mobile TV tuners.

 

Nor I.. I wonder the same.

 

check out the eclipse reply i just told him how to and tv turners are only good if you are not moving

 

I've got the TV tuner on my 7 year old Kenwood unit, and it works like a champ if you are in a larger media market. Works ok in smaller areas too. Oddly enough, I can carry very good TV reception along most interstates. Of course, when parked, the reception is much better but its really not that bad while moving if you are in a big city. Thing is great during football season. Anyone looked at one of those satellite mounts for the roof?

 

yes but they are very expensive and still kinda large

 

I've got the built in tuner on my kenwood XXV-05V. I'm not overly impressed with the reception out here in rural Wichita Kansas area. My system came with 2 powered antennas that stick on the back glass. I would think they would pick up pretty good so I'm betting they might not be setup correctly.

To override the parking sensor I attached the wire to my 12v cigarette wire and it works like a champ. For some damn reason it wouldn't let me connect that sense wire to the remote or ignition wires it just wouldn't work. Soon as I shoved it in the cigarette plug it worked. All that wire looks for is 12v.

Oh and save some cash and don't buy from crutchfield. Onlinecarstereo.com buy a refurb unit with their extended warranty will save you a ton.
