    Problems receiving OTA outside but not in attic?

    Does the DB8 allow the bowties to move independently? That's what drew me to the DB8E as I have some in different directions. However, I have just put my older Channel Master 8 tie on my roof and a little tweaking and I get all the channels I need in at 80+% so I should be good. Thanks guys...

    Problems receiving OTA outside but not in attic?

    Just to give you guys a follow up, the power supply isn't working properly. There is no red light lit up on the module that they gave me. I only got it to come on once or twice but very briefly. So I tried another piece of coax thinking this was it and still nothing. So its either the module...

    Problems receiving OTA outside but not in attic?

    The mount is on the back half of my roof. I would say about equal with the antenna in my attic. I think I am going to try and bring the one in the attic outside and see what that gets me. Any tips on how to get it pointed into the correct direction? If I end up using 2 antennas, I assume I...

    Problems receiving OTA outside but not in attic?

    No, I wasn't able to pull the other networks off the side strong enough in the attic to receive and not much better outside. Guess I just have to fiddle with the outside antenna a little bit more. Would the DB4E be that much better outside? "Claims" to be that much better but unsure at this...

    Problems receiving OTA outside but not in attic?

    Here is my results. Hope this helps. The channels I watch the most are WNYS, WSYT, WSYR, WTVH, WSTM. I am using RG6 coax as well. On Solidsignal.com the MS2002 comes recommended to my zip code of 13031 so I figured I would be good to go which makes me wonder if there is something wrong with...

    Problems receiving OTA outside but not in attic?

    In the final steps of cutting my cable and I have an older Winegard 8 bay antenna in my attic on a rotator. I can get almost all of my channels mainly in 1 directly but 2 of the major networks are in opposite directions. I am using an older Tivo to DVR my OTA and I am trying to figure out how...

    OTA DVR? Looking to pull the plug on cable....

    I appreciate all your help guys. I do have a Roku 3 on its way but then am thinking that maybe I should go with a blu-ray player w/ apps. There are just too many options. I did view the AVS forums but some of what they are talking about is a little above my understanding. I think I will go...

    OTA DVR? Looking to pull the plug on cable....

    Any have any experience with the OTA tuner on the Roamio? I don't want to sink $100's into something that won't work...maybe I'll wait to see how the Channel Master DVR's work out when people receive them. I've been researching the Tivo Roamio and they seem to get good OTA signal strength...

    OTA DVR? Looking to pull the plug on cable....

    Thanks guys. I was just on the Tivo website and found the Premiere is the one. They are only $49 now until the end of January but its the $500 lifetime fee that is killing me. However, in the long run, I will still be ahead about $600/year for the 1st year since cutting cable. I would be...

    OTA DVR? Looking to pull the plug on cable....

    I am looking to pull the plug on cable and I have my OTA antenna setup in my attic and I can get all my local channels. However, some of the shows I watch are on after I got to bed. I heard that there were specific DVR's, I think from Tivo, that could work. Walmart had a Magnavox...

    Best place to sign up for DISH?

    Thanks all for the good advice. I just called Verizon an downgraded my plan temporarily until I can figure out what i need. I loved Dish when I had it years ago. I keep going back and forth to possibly cut the cord entirely and just use OTA and Hulu Plus/Netflix. But then again, unsure. I...

    Best place to sign up for DISH?

    I currently have FiOS and love it but contract is up and they are not willing to do anything with pricing to keep me so looking to come back to Dish. I get mailings about every week from them but wondering if there is a better place to sign up than with Dish directly? A 3rd party maybe...
