New Silicondust LTE Filter

[gggplaya]

I didn't order the Silicon Dust filter, I ordered a different one last fall when football season started back up(the only thing I actually watch on antenna).

Last fall I noticed many of my channels were not working and my local station on DTV channel 36 (602-608mhz) was still strong but would stutter and get blocky every few seconds. It was driving me nuts. I rescanned and it brought back my channels. I then learned about the FCC auction of 600mhz to tmobile. So nearly all my local stations reshuffled, repacked and some stations are now on the same DTV channel but on a subchannel on the station. I have 2 channels(Fox and NBC) on DTV 36.

After doing more research I found that Tmobile had a tower a few degrees to the left of where I had to point my antenna. My tv tower is 35 miles away, but the Tmobile tower is 2 miles away and only a few degrees to the left. I bought a different brand of 600mhz LTE filter because there was only 1 brand to buy at the time. It completely solved my issue of stuttering on DTV 36.

I tried placing the filter directly on my HDhomerun Extend because that's super easy to do, but that didn't solve my issue. I had to go up in to my attic and install the filter a few inches from my antenna. I'm not using any kind of amplifier because all my signals have over 90% strength without an amp. But after that, there were zero issues with stutter or breakups on channel 36.

Just thought I'd share. If you're having issues with DTV channel's 35, 36, and 37. I'd buy this filter to try and solve it. The cell interference looks like a stutter or breakup every few seconds of watching.

We've seen spec sheet of the Channel Master LTE filter and 3rd parting test results. Where is the SD LTE filter spec sheet and test results?
An extra 99 cents for the SD logo. Oh and it looks like plus shipping too.

Looking at both on Amazon, it's $19.00 for the Channel Master and $19.99 for the Silicon Dust filter. However, the Silicon dust filter is Prime Shipping and the Channel Master is shipped normal shipping. I prefer to pay the extra 99 cents for 2 day prime shipping. https://www.amazon.com/SiliconDust-LPF- ... 08QDWP43V/

I was not aware Amazon was charging the customer for shipping if the total order is under $25. They are charging us for shipping as well.

I will talk it through internally - we can probably offer an alternative shipping where we ship for free.
