RF Link 5.8ghz SR WIRELESS TRANS/RCVR

Surprisingly excellent reception

Strengths: Takes 5 minutes to set-up, great reception, no interference.

Weakness: Lack of S-video or component connections.

I bought this item just couple days ago for just under $100. I was very sceptical about my purchase until I hooked it up to my satellite box downstairs and a bedroom tv set upstairs. Picture and sound reception is amazingly great. It does not take much of directional alignment between receiver and transmitter to get reception. As long as the units (antennas) are generally pointed towards each...

great product

Strengths: clear 5.8Ghz signal, remote signal sender, video/audio cables included

Weakness: a bit pricey. composite video only (no s-video or component)

i have tried 2.4Ghz senders before, with completely unacceptable signal interference due to the crowded bandwidth. These 5.8Ghz units however have worked great since i got them. I have had clear, strong signal at the reception end, which is one floor above, on the opposite side of the house, through the floor and several walls. Considering all the obstacles, i was very pleased to get such a clear...

Terrific Product - Setup in Minutes

Strengths: Provides strong audio/video signal, easy to setup

Weakness: Instruction manual could be better, still haven't figured out the infrared remote control.

I bought this product for my wife for Christmas, along with a kitchen TV that we didn't feel like installing a separate satellite box for in such a small space. The package came with a transmitter and a composite video/audio cable, which I plugged into the back of my satellite box that would be transmitting the signal. It also came with a receiver and another composite video/audio cable, which I...

Easy install and great reception

Strengths: Within 10 minutes out of the box, I had great remote reception and control of my satellite receiver.

Weakness: Only noticable interference noticed so far is when someone walks in the path between the transmitter and receiver.

I've tried 2.4 Ghz products like this without much success and thought that the favorable reviews that I saw on this product might have been written by the manufacturer or distributors of the product. But I am completely satisfied with the picture, sound quality and remote controlability that it provides.

RF Link 5.8ghz SR WIRELESS TRANS/RCVR

Strengths: Easy Install, Good Quality

Weakness: None

I received my AVS5811 from B & H Photo right on time. I had previously ordered a 2.4ghz unit and had interference from cordless phone and blocked my wi-fi network. I must have spent 3 hours trying to get it to work good. Finally gave up. Then found the AVS5811 at Price Grabber and ordered it from B & H. I removed it from the box and plugged it into the cable box, put the receiver in my bedroom,...

5.8ghz SR WIRELESS TRANS/RCVR

Strengths: Product works very well, no interference from other electronic devices.

Weakness: Poor remote extender range.

The reception of the A/V is excelent. There is no interference in the audio or video. I had a 2.4Ghz unit which had audio interference when the microwave oven was on. I replaced it with this unit and all is interference free. If they improve remote extender range, then I would rate it excellent.

5.8 GHZ Wireless Tranmitter and Receiver

Strengths: The units were priced.

Weakness: The instructions were not good at all

I installed the wireless for a kitchen TV. Most of my time was spent trying th understand why it did not work. Just by accident I found out that on the receiver TV it works on the audio/visual, not the CATV or the TV. RF link would do justice to their product if they had someone to write instructions for people who are electronically challenged (like me).

You get what you pay for!

Strengths: Good picture quality one level (in home) removed from transmitter.

Weakness: Package inserts don't specify which types of cable boxes are compatible for set-up. Had to buy expensive conversion cables. No directions for infrared remote. Still can't get it to work.

Generally would not purchase this type of item from the NET again. You get what you pay for..in this case, total lack of documentation and support service. Once fooled, shame on you....

5.8ghz SR WIRELESS TRANS/RCVR + suggestion

Strengths: Clear signal, both video and audio whereas the 2.4Ghz always had static!

Weakness: Cost is about twice the 2.4Ghz.

Installation is easy using RCA cables. However, the picture on my old receiving set would roll intermittently. I changed inputs but nothing helped. I have an RF CONVERTER (which Walmart sells for less than $30) that I plugged the RCA cables into and used coaxial out to my tv and the problem is fixed. I saw a question where someone asked if they could use the wireless with coaxial and this is how.

RF Link 5.8ghz SR WIRELESS TRANS/RCVR

Strengths: Setup is easy. Reception is better than 2.4GHz product.

Weakness: Expensive, weak reception, intereference, hard to get a perfect spot

Setup is easy. The interference is less than those 2.4GHz product that I returned before. The sound quality is good but the picture is still not 100% perfect and have some distortion. Hard to adjust the antenna to get a perfect spot. Price is much more than those 2.4GHz product.
