* Great A/V but remote didn't work. ...
Audio and video work amazingly well. No noticeable problems. It's crystal clear. No noise, no snow. Perfect. This is even when I'm directly between the transmitter and receiver's line of path. And I had on a large, motorized fan right next to it. No snow, solid picture.
But I have the Scientific Atlanta 8300HD DVR with Time Warner Cable, and the remote control almost never works through the Terk LF-30S. It might work for a few button presses of the remote control, and then it stops working for 30 more button presses. And I've not found any way to improve that. Very annoying.
So that disappointed me about this device. But I was able to find a decent remote control extender that did work with my remote control, however, so the combination of both works well.
The remote control extender I bought is called the "Next Generation Remote Control Extender", and it's made by Next Generation. You can also find it for sale on for 30 to 40 dollars. It worked well with my 8300HD DVR's remote control.
I received this as a birthday present so that I could watch my DVR's recorded shows in my home gym while working out. The DVR is in the adjacent room, behind a thick stone wall where the chimney is. Total distance is probably only 20 feet from transmitter to receiver.
The Terk is not hi-def, by the way. The 8300HD DVR that I have outputs standard definition, and that's what I use with the Terk.
I considered giving it 3 stars instead of 4, since it didn't work with my remote. But I think it deserves 4 stars since the A/V quality is the most important thing, and it does well at that. You can always buy a better remote control extender like I did.

Works great until I use my wireless mouse or wireless keyboard.
When we first installed the Leapfrog, in the back room, we didn't have the PC turned on, and the TV received great sound and picture from the front room via the Leapfrog. Soon after, ON went the PC, causing some TV static and picture problems. The KILLER was when either the wireless mouse, or wireless keyboard was touched. The static and picture distortion made it impossible to watch TV, via the Leapfrog. So...... for that TV, we'll just stay with watching local channels via our HD Indoor Antenna. We're keeping the Leapfrog because, it's kinda nice to have the option to watch Direct TV where ever we want, anyplace inside or outside of our home.

* Great technology, inventive product ...
I've used a "wired" Terk product of the same kind for many years to watch Tivo which is attached to one TV in a completely different room. It's a lot cheaper than buying two Tivos and the technology works great for standard TV (Not HD). This new product is being used with satellite to avoid an extra receiver lease. The wireless product works great, but you need to make sure you don't have a wireless network or phone on the same frequency (2.4 GHZ). This is the standard wireless network frequency. Also, you should keep the devices a little bit away from the actual TVs as they can cause interference as well.

* Turk Tv signal transmitter ...
This product works as well as I expected. It transmits video with as clear a picture as analog cable TV. To me, there is nothing wrong with that.
I knew that microwaves and other devices on the same frequency would interrupt the signal. I guess I hadn't thought thoroughly about how frequently that would happen, living in a town home where other households are in such close proximity.
When other neighbors are just beyond the wall, the program you are watching can be interrupted unexpectedly. When that happens there is no picture, no sound.
We have enjoyed using it at times. At other times we have been very annoyed with the interruptions.
It does what it claims to do. It is what it is.
