even thoughwe shouldmen-
tion that simpliTV distributes
the signal from individual TV
stations “as is”, whichmeans
there may be considerable
variations from one channel
to the next, or even between
different broadcasts on the
same channel. Commercial
channels, in particular, ap-
parently prefer the use of
upscalers to native HD pro-
duction technology.
During our test, the Neo-
tion module did an excellent
job in combination with sim-
pliTV. We did not experience
any signal dropouts and the
receiver’s response times
were impressively fast – just
as with standard FTA chan-
nels. The automatic firmware
update feature is a smart so-
lution as it takes a frequently
cumbersome burden off your
shoulder. The Neotion mod-
ule is kept up to date and all
you have to do is enjoy ter-
restrial HDTV.
