English term

integrated rood antenna

English to Italian Tech/Engineering Electronics / Elect Eng
It's from a user manual of a portable TV and in the main features it is written:

integrated rood* antenna

The problem is with rood, as I found references for "integrated rod antenna", but nothing for rood. I asked to the customer and he says the source text is correct and that translators for other languages just skipped the word "rood" and only translated integrated antenna...

What do you think about, is it a typo for rod?

Thanks for any help

Decisamente un typo per 'rod antenna' = antenna a stelo.
Silvia Nigretto Mar 8, 2011:
riflettendo... Ciao! Riflettendo, rimarrei sul vago perché, molto probabilmente, si tratta proprio di un typo per "rod". Forse ha più senso parlare di "antenna a stelo"... Lascia "antenna integrata" e ti togli ogni dubbio.

Sounds like a typo for either room (or roof - D and F are adjacent on QWERTY keyboard). In any case, it should be integral - not integrated.

agree luskie : agree con rod-stelo / così agreivo col ragionamento in toto :)

Ciao Luskie! Hai dato l'agree alla mia seconda ipotesi (nel commento sopra). In effetti, senza ulteriore contesto, una sola frase a sé può significare tutto e nulla. La cosa certa è solo l'antenna integrata.
agree Raffaele Brevetti : penso anche io si tratti di un typo (notare che la d è vicino alla f sulla tastiera) :)

Grazie mille Raffaele!
