NOW UP TO 10W OF POWER, POWERED OFF 24-48V AND WITH OPTIONAL REMOTE POWER/SWR
SENSOR!
TVMAX2000+ was a great low-cost TV transmitter, but it had a few drawbacks.
This is why we decided to bring out a new model and now it is finally here!
Our new up to 10W VHF TV transmitter is your ticket into the world of TV. Now
with support for remote directional coupler and RF power limit so you can build
100W, 200W, 500W or stronger TV transmitter. Build your own TV studio and broadcast
your own TV program! Transmit movies from your PC to your living room, re-transmit
the TV program you've never been able to receive in your valley, run a college
TV station, cover rural areas of Africa with TV signal from satellite stations,
run a hotel cable system info pages or just have fun... this unit will keep
you busy during the cold winter evenings and is sure to provide lots of fun
for many months to come!
Unit is available as a populated and tested board or a rack-mounted ready-to-use
transmitter. Rack mounted unit runs from 24-48V DC from mains power adapter. Optional
stereo encoder board plugs into the main transmitter board to provide stereo
sound and DSP processing for NTSC. Up to 10W of output power offers from several
hundred meters up to about 10km of range depending on antenna type used on transmitting
and receiving side. High-gain yagis on both sides might offer even more range
in favorable conditions.
Unit is rugged and comes with SWR protection, made for 24/7/365 operation. Each unit has a wide-angle high contrast back-lit LCD display. Output power and channel can now be adjusted via LCD module.
Look HERE for all manuals, drivers and support.

What is the DSP Stereo Encoder for USA/NTSC?
- This add-on card enables stereo sound, it was designed for NTSC system, used in USA and most of South/North America.
What is the 1000W external power/swr meter?
- This add-on card enables building strong TV transmitters, it is placed after an amplifier and makes it possible to show output power and swr on the LCD display of the transmitter. The add-on card connects to the TVMAX 5000 via simple flat cable. This is recommended for experienced builders only.
What is the USB IO board for?
- This add-on card lets you connect this transmitter to the PC via standard USB cable (not included). You can fully monitor transmitter via PC (power, frequency and other settings).
What is the Ethernet remote control module for?
- This add-on card lets you connect this transmitter to the PC via Ethernet network. You can control and monitor the status of your transmitter over Ethernet or Internet.
What is the Predrilled LCD front panel?
- This is a square piece of aluminum with predrilled holes for LCD display, buttons and LED diodes. It also has 4 holes in the corner so you can easily mount this to your case. This makes it much easier to mount the transmitter into a nice looking case (eliminates the hard work with the LCD).
Antenna options
You can check all our TV antennas here.
We have also provided a low cost LPTV antenna with 5 meters of coaxial cable
with installed connectors, the high gain LPTV UHF panel antenna (wideband UHF)
is suitable for 1-2W of power max due to ferrite transformer used inside, it
is perfect for transmission in one general direction and offers lots of gain.
It is perfect for 2-way transmission from one point to the other or to cover
an erea from the edge, for example from a hill located next to the city.
The professional panel antenna option will resist any weather, offers even more
gain and can handle up to 1500W of power. Radiation pattern is similar and this
antenna is as well perfect for transmission in one general direction and it
is perfect for 2-way transmission from one point to the other or to cover an
erea from the edge, for example from a hill located next to the city.
