Review...

By Allan Arturo Corrales Acu?a - April 6, 2008

It is definitively a good book. It is easy to read for everyone trying to get some knowledge about Digital Television. Its 3D graphics are a very nice way to illustrate the concepts. It also includes a color plate with some of the illustrations found around the book.

It is not a highly technical book so everybody could read it. Its brief and concise explanations will take you along the way to understand the most difficult sections even if you are not familiar with the topic.

Most of the book is written from an European perspective but it is not hard to use the things you learn from the North American view. Sometimes, but not always, there are comparisons to the American standards and that helps a lot. The American appendix is quite short for my taste. It is only 20 pages long, of which 8 are full of drawings of areas of coverage of American satellites leaving us with just 12 pages to read.

A good non technical introduction

By Justanotherreader "book addict" - November 23, 2008

This book is ideal for a hobbist who wants to learn about digital TV technology. IT covers all the details that it sets down to cover and goes into a lot of depth on connecting up antennas and linking the equipment together. The authors ability to express technical material is amazing. Having said that, I am a manager in the Digital TV area and I was hoping for some more material on the equipment and the technolgies from the perspective of both "What they do" and "How they work".
