  Overall Rating: 4 Star Review

  Duration of ownership:

  Strengths: Easy to set up. No interference from other devices

  Weaknesses: Picture will flicker if you walk in front of the TV or the transmitter.

  Overall Evaluation: This is great! I would have had to pay the cable company to come out and run a cable to my room over the garage. Now I can move the tv anywhere and not have to be next to a cable outlet. I found out it works better if you put the transmitter unit up as high as possible. I had it set up at about eye level and the remote sender (channel changer) wouldn't work. I moved the transmitter to the top of the stero unit and it works fine.

  Duration of ownership:3 Days

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

  Weaknesses: Lack of S-video or component connections.

  Overall Evaluation: 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 other, reception is there and once again...it is great. I did not notice much of overheating of the unit as someone mentioned earlier. I have it on all the time and it barely gets warm. This item is really worth purchasing if you don't want to mess with additional cables or cable/satellite boxes to get reception on additional tv units. I highly recommend it!!!

  Duration of ownership:1 Weeks

  Strengths: Excellent picture and sound. Remote works well and setup was a breeze.

  Weaknesses: None

  Overall Evaluation: This equipmet was used to connect the cable box to a remote location with no TV outlet. First time out of the box it worked and the picture is as good as direct feed from the cable. the remote is easy to set up and functions perfectly.

  Duration of ownership:

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

  Weaknesses: 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.

  Overall Evaluation: 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....

  Duration of ownership:4 Days

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

  Weaknesses: Cost is about twice the 2.4Ghz.

  Overall Evaluation: 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.

  Duration of ownership:1

  Strengths: The units were priced.

  Weaknesses: The instructions were not good at all

  Overall Evaluation: 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).

  Duration of ownership:3 Weeks

  Strengths: Easy to set-up, clear video/audio

  Weaknesses: Instruction manual can be better, finicky IR remote control

  Overall Evaluation: Good product. Is a little pricey, but worth the cost. Worked fine right out of the box and set-up took literally five minutes. Only drawback is that it took some time to get the IR remote control to work. The transmitter and receiver had to be placed just in the right place for it to work. I believe its because the IR remote control works in the 2.4 gHz range and so has interference from cordless phones and wireless network.

  Duration of ownership:10 Days

  Strengths: clear signal, good audio

  Weaknesses: a little bulky, IR mouse didn't work with my Dish stb, and instructions for this were not good. Don't expect HD quality.

  Overall Evaluation: Operates on 5.8ghz which is better than the rca 2.4ghz model I used before. Mine are located about 40 feet from each other, separated by a floor, and the 2.4ghz rca was not performing well at all w/ my cordless phone, wireless internet, etc. The rflink 5.4ghz model works great. The signal looks almost as good as coming right out of the Dish stb.

  Duration of ownership:2 Months

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

  Weaknesses: Poor remote extender range.

  Overall Evaluation: 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.
