Experience

Back in 2012, Anatoliy kicked off his tech blogging journey, diving deep into TVs and media boxes with his Blogspot blog. At the same time, he was a key executive in Ukrtelecom, a leading Ukrainian telecom corporation. Starting from 2016 to 2020 he also owned an own business in the field of setting up and servicing Internet and satellite antennas. From 2016 to 2019 Anatoliy also worked as a key executive for Huawei Ukraine.

In 2013, Anatoliy launched Tab-TV, a site all about TVs. He was the pioneer in decoding TV model numbers and remote codes. If you’ve ever read a guide on figuring out a TV’s year by its model number or a guide “Who owns this TV brand” it’s probably based on Anatoliy’s work.

Here’s some of the notable Anatoliy’s articles:

Decoding LG TV model numbers

Big names like LG, Samsung, and media outlets like Forbes, The Next Web, ArsTechnica, Lifehacker, Android Central, ZDNet and many others have cited his work. Some industry-leading companies even use Anatoliy’s research and analysis in their internal documentation and correspondence. Taking into account Anatoliy’s articles are usually about fixing problems or untangling complicated tech questions, his works are widely cited on various forums and specialized communities, including Samsung Communities, Reddit, AVForums, and many others. In 2019, he said goodbye to his 9-to-5 to go all-in on Tab-TV.

Today, Anatoliy is still working on complicated tech questions and keeps shining the light on questions that are usually out of other media focus.
