Description
The Ellipse Mix is an advanced over the air TV antenna that automatically adapts its gain in real time to optimize the reception of television signals, ensuring the optimum level of signal is delivered at all times. This latest repack-ready version has been completely redesigned from the ground up for the new US broadcast frequencies, filtering any interfering 5G signals above 608MHz, and providing independent amplification for the VHF and UHF bands. The antenna is able to receive very weak signals while at the same time avoiding overload caused by very strong signals. The Ellipse Mix is a high gain directional antenna designed to offer stable and high quality reception of High VHF and UHF only (RF channels 7-36) in mid to long-range receiving scenarios despite continuous changes in weather and transmitting conditions thanks to its exclusive and intelligent built-in TForce amplifier.
The Televes proprietary triple boom design ensures maximum raw gain in a compact and install friendly form factor suitable for outdoor or attic install. The Ellipse Mix ships in an eco-friendly compact package and assembles in less than 60 seconds. No additional preamplifier purchase is required as the antenna includes a best-in-class very low-noise TForce preamplifier built in right at the dipole with automatic gain control, plus FM and cellphone signal filtering adapting to any installation situation. A low-consumption UL-listed power supply is included providing two outputs for convenient distribution to additional TV sets. Not only do industry experts rave about the Ellipse Mix exceptional performance but also the unparalleled manufacturing quality using only the finest materials (aluminum, stainless steel, ABS plastic) ensuring years of trouble free operation in the most challenging environments. The Ellipse Mix is your best option for a compact high gain TV antenna with uncompromising performance.
Key Features:
- The antenna has been completely redesigned for reception of TV signals on RF channels 7-36
- Crystal clear TV reception enabled by a built-in T-Force preamplifier that automatically adjusts its gain independently for VHF and UHF signals for an optimum no-compromise performance
- Elegant cutting edge design built strong to withstand the harshest elements
- FM and LTE/5G filtering eliminates radio and cellular phone interference
- Designed as a compact easy to install product for professionals and consumers alike (38.8 x 34 x 27 in)
- Unlike most other antennas the preamplifier, power supply and LTE/5G filter are included making Ellipse your best value
- Built-in TForce preamplifier continuously analyzes TV signals received by the antenna to provide the optimum gain and delivered signal level at all times. Based on proprietary MMIC technology exclusive to Televes offering unparalleled performance
- In the event of power failure, the Ellipse Mix will continue to work in passive mode, bypassing the built-in antenna electronics. The antenna can operate in active (amp turned on) or passive mode (amp turned off)
- Televes, a world renowned leader of commercial and consumer television solutions with its own research, development and manufacturing facilities provides outstanding quality products for your TV signal reception

TForce technology:
Televes transitions from the traditional silicon era into a new era of electronic component design, allowing integrated circuits to be precisely manufactured for microwave frequency bands. Utilizing “State of the Art” MMIC technology TForce is manufactured using semiconductor compounds such as gallium arsenide (GaAs), providing the resulting products with unparalleled features and performance
Televes has reinvented the antenna concept. Until now, an antenna was just the reception component of a TV installation in which gain and directivity were the main features. The introduction of a smart device like BOSS provides the antenna with the capacity to receive very weak signals without the risk of being affected by very strong signals, the result is a dynamic balance between weak and strong signals that provides optimum signal levels at all times: the "dynamic range" concept turns out to be the most outstanding among quality parameters.
The creation of TForce with BOSS technology using MMIC components is an extraordinary milestone in the optimization of the dynamic range. The technology that allowed the reception of lost signals from distant satellites is now allowing the enhancement of the coverage range in DTT installations.

Happy
by John
Televes Ellipse is a great antenna. I am about 45 miles from my towers and I am getting signals above 60 in most cases. Very happy with purchase.
Happy customer
by Chuck
Am very pleased with Solid Signal service. My item was delivered on time and the Televes Ellipse Mix Antenna is performing as I expected. Would definitely recommend Solid Signal and Televes to anyone in the future. Kudos to all
I’M IMPRESSED!
by Roy K
The Ellipse Mix is a great antenna! I’ve only had it about two weeks, but it has exceeded my expectations, so far. My location is about 60 miles from Austin and 70 miles from San Antonio. The difference in direction angles is nearly 90° and I’m getting a good signal from both areas. Also, it was easy to assemble and install.
Excellent choice
by Steve
Shipping was extremely fast. Received in 2 days. Very easy to assemble took about 20 minutes, no tools. Increased signal strength on the 5 stations I really wanted to 100 on 3 and over 80 on the other 2. Went from receiving a total of 31 stations to 43. Very pleased as this was the 3rd antenna I have purchased over the past 6 years and none of the previous ones worked as expected. Solid purchase!!
Eclipse mix antenna
by Jerry
Our cottage is 60 - 70 miles from any tv station. We had a cheap antenna from ebay that worked ok getting about 13 stations. After installing the eclipse mix model we got 33 channels. Works well especially since I have it mounted only about 12 feet from the ground. Very satisfied with quality and great customer service
No more intermittent signal.
by JOHN -
I live in Livonia MI. It’s not too far from the stations, but the tall trees here cause problems for some channels; especially on windy days. I have tried five different antennas over the last 20 years. This antenna fixes it! Very pleased with the product.
Excellent compact antenna
by C C
This antenna is absolutely excellent when compared to other top brands. It is well built and it is made of durable plastic, aluminum and stainless steel so that rust will not be a problem. It can be assembled without tools, although the first assembly is a bit harder because the photos of the instructions are too close-up, thus not enabling you to determine what part of the antenna is being illustrated. Careful observation solves this, though. And there are Youtube videos out there for assembly assistance. Its ability to bring in stations is formidable when you consider its compact size. It will work well with or without connecting it to the power supply that feeds its built-in smart pre-amp. Use the pre-amp only if you need more gain. You predominantly see these antennas by Televes on rooftops in Spain (where it is designed & built) and all over Europe. I have two of them. One aimed south towards towers 19 miles away and the other aimed north towards towers 23 miles away.
Antenna Man recommended - Must be good, right?
by mdmead
As for actual antenna performance, I'm not able to give an in-depth review. In the antenna's current location, I'm not truly testing its performance. What I can tell you is this is a quality antenna that went together easily and is pulling in all our local signals without the preamp. My goal is to take this antenna to our cabin and test it there, and that is where the preamp will come into play. Assuming it works well, and I suspect it will, I'll do a future review when I purchase a second antenna. Props to SolidSignal; easy transaction and quick shipping.
Excellent Service

Excellent service.
Strong Clean Signal
by Paul DL
Our signal was improved as expected. This is my third Televes antenna purchased, three different models, for three different signal profiles: omnidirectional in Syracuse, narrow focus in the mountains, and moderate focus in a suburb of Syracuse. All three have been great performers.
