RE: Extending a Digital antenna

Posted by blue_z on December 31, 2015 at 00:22:30:
> But is there an option to convert the signal from the antenna to wireless, transmit it across the room to a wireless receiver and then convert it back to coax for connecting to the TV?
No. You would be trying to retransmit the entire spectrum of TV channels so that your TV tuner could select any channel. Aside from cost, the FCC prohibits such a device.

I have read about a box (essentially a tuner) that can transmit _one_ channel over wireless to a companion box that connects to one of the TV's (HDMI) inputs.
