A consequence of the auctioning of broadcast TV channels to telecommunications companies is that TV antennas are likely to be picking up signals (4G and LTE) other than digital TV, with the potential to cause interference to TV reception - specifically the picture and/or sound may simply disappear. In such cases a special LTE/4G filter (such as the LT3062) may be required to remove frequencies in the 720-1000MHz 4G LTE ("Long Term Evolution") band.
For new installations, LTE filters are now being routinely fitted.
