    Where to install TV antenna?

    Where should you install a TV antenna in a Polo?

    Or can you just hook up to the roof radio antenna? (and how)

    And what antenna would you recommend?

    What unit are you using, most DVB-T systems require two or more antennas. If so one on the front window, one on the rear qtr window.

    I'm using this:
    EyeTV W | elgato.com

    Going to hook up to a USB power source and connect via iPad so passengers can watch etc.

    I don't think its a two antenna system?

    Any ideas on which antenna to get? I imagine something omnidirectional?

    If your getting the suction cup mount, go for the front windscreen. If the magnetic one, it will have to go outside.

    Unfortunately there is not much of a selection of MCX TV tuner antennas, I would go for the suction cup ones to go on the inside of the window.
