G200 Marvel and TV antenna

[Livius]

Can the TV Tuner on the G200 Marvel take input from an (amplified) antenna?

Yes, but....

I've tried it in the past and it was working, but be aware that the TV signal quality from an amplified antenna is not so good; in fact this kind of antenna (due to the fact that the signal is amplified... in a not very good way by often cheap electronic components) is really very sensible to interferences.

So I suggest you forget this solution if you have, for example, to capture TV or (when available) to use TELETEXT.

In my case I got really better results using a cable (8 meters) from the "wall socket" than using an amplified antenna.
