Well it didn't work once the car started to get going. Signal broke up. It seems that mobile applications need a diversity tuner like those used in the European BMW hybrid video module. Unfortunately the screwed up US system so far has no one making a diversity tuner for the ATSC system. The European system is DVB-T and has diversity tuners that work fine.

I found this part when searching for a tv module for my e53 "65 50 0 397 393 analog/digital TV" anyone know if this will receive digital channels in USA?

BMW do not make any digital TV tuners for the American ATSC digital TV standard, and are unlikely to, as they normally do not offer TV in the USA as an option. Additionally, the E53 vehicles, and the architecture they are built on, is being phased out of production and I don't believe any more development will occur. If you really want digital TV; use an after-market tuner and connect it to the analogue AV-In or use an RF-modulator. |

I still have not heard of or found any digital diversity tuner for the US system.
It may be some time before anyone comes up with one. The US company, Microtune, has no plan that I know of to make a tuner chip for the US although they do make the chip used in the BMW Euro hybrid video module. I am pissed that the US came out with the ATSC system as I have already lost one of my main channels. |

Nope. Wasted money. Get the analogue if you want tv for a couple more months.

I think this is what you want. Go to Google and put in "F connector dc blocker". Are you in Ohio or UK? I found one at the local electronics parts store.

Truly the only solution for tv in the car is a satelite dish if your in the USA. If you have an X5 and your in the US get a tracvision A5 or A7. Its directtv in the car low profile and mounts to your roof rack. I rode in a jeep cherokee with it and I'm sold. Im saving up for one. New models cost $3000, used can be had for like $1,000 on fleabay but you have to also pay for directv monthly. If you already have direct tv than it an additional 5 bucks a month. Its worth it if you want clear tv channels while doing 70mph.
