Accessory turns mobile phones, tablets into portable television

WJXT now broadcasting directly to Dyle TV-enabled mobile devices

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Looking for a way to watch your favorite Channel 4 programming on the go without eating up your phone's data plan?  Introducing Dyle TV, local television broadcast directly to your mobile phone or tablet.

Dyle TV and various electronic manufacturers have teamed up to produce devices that deliver live television broadcast from WJXT and other stations to mobile devices.

The new mobile TV receivers are available either as a wireless device or, for iPhones and iPads, as a device that plugs into your device's port.

What makes the device different?

Unlike livestream video on the web -- which is not going way -- Dyle is over-the-air broadcast television specifically geared to mobile devices. This allows an unlimited number of viewers to access the mobile television service all at once with no buffering or streaming issues.

How does it work?

The tuners receive ATSC-Mobile television signals on an antenna, then either connect directly to the dock of an iOS mobile device, or pull down the signal and transmit wirelessly to your Android or Apple phone or tablet.

With Dyle TV, people can receive our signal anytime and anywhere in the viewing area. Watch entertainment programming or stay informed with the latest local and national news.

The mobile broadcast technology is also designed to work if others are moving around in the room, even watching in a moving car.

How much does it cost? Where I can purchase one?

Depending on type of device and manufacturer, prices vary from $100 and $130. But that's all you ever have to buy, as this is free, over-the-air TV that does not use any data from your wireless plan. It is also accessible from wireless-only tablets.
