I just spend some time trying to dig up the old TV ads for the licensing fee we had in Austria where they also had some kind of detector van with antennas. Unfortunately I wasn't able to find it.
I was always curious how that might work.
- m0xte 7y agoAFAIK they detected the emissions from the IF strip on old televisions with a directional yagi antenna mounted on top of the van. This possibility disappeared when the IC based IF sets were developed in the 70s and 80s.
- dewey 7y agoI still remember that van having an antenna like that on top. Might be the case.
