    VHF question

    no this is not the third or 4th time ive asked this. this is a whole other direction, the last time you guys said it was weather causing me to get the stations i was pointing at and its not the weather. 125 miles out over flat land, thats why i havent posted my tvfool report because it doesnt...

    VHF question

    Ive done some messing around with my vhf and i wanted to know if anything would beat the yagi that i have, i think its a 1713 but not sure. Just need a little bit more pulling power to keep a couple of channels stable.

    VHF/UHF to UHF/UHF

    well the dsl antenna is about a foot below the vhf. i know that is too close but it also done it when the vhf was a few feet higher. i plan on moving the vhf closer to the preamp, adding low loss cable from the vhf to the switch and trimming about 10 feet of excess cable, and adding low loss...

    VHF/UHF to UHF/UHF

    yes just checked chattanooga stations and they ae all on vhf so all i have to do is turn my vhf in that direction and keep my uhf the way it is, it will look just like nostaticatalls setup only different antenna directions. thanks guys. oh one more thing, i have a dsl antenna that sits right...

    VHF/UHF to UHF/UHF

    I was just thinking that these channels im going for all fall in the 7-13 range, would this not be a vhf instead of a uhf? i realize that weather has a lot to do with it but ive gotten these channels under cloudy skies, sunny skies, morning, and night and i know i can get at least 9.1 and 9.2 in.

    VHF/UHF to UHF/UHF

    I am almost ready now to order this new uhf antenna and do away with the vhf. i removed about 15 feet of cable run underneath my house and it helped a lot with the channels that i am trying to get. I do not see these channels on tvfool but they are channel 9 (55-60 signal) channel 3 (30-40...

    VHF/UHF to UHF/UHF

    I checked tonight on a clear night, the channel i was shooting for came in 45, i had another channel coming in at around 30. on cloudy days they come in better and i get a couple of more channels. so if i trimmed a little bit of my cable run under the house to the tv, i might be able to trim a...

    VHF/UHF to UHF/UHF

    ok, so just to confirm. i will just need to order another uhf and a joiner. and this will help reception if i upgrade to the HD-9032 instead of another xg 91 or whatever it is that i have, cut the 2 pieces of coax into equal lengths to the joiner, get a good joiner like previously posted, then...

    VHF/UHF to UHF/UHF

    i was actually going to ditch the vhf antenna that i get 1 channel with, and get the 2nd uhf antenna to gain an extra 3 channels..... if this is a good idea. i dont want to lose any strength though. i get great signal on my uhf right now, if i turn it to the direction i want the other one to go...

    VHF/UHF to UHF/UHF

    I have a separate uhf and vhf antenna along with a preamp. the vhf only picks up 1 channel. I am wondering if i can replace the vhf with another uhf antenna and plug it into the vhf slot on the preamp and have 2 uhf antennas pointing in different directions so i can pick up more channels? do...

    directional to multi-directional

    i have a uhf and a vhf. i had to lower it down 5 feet due to the wind bending my pole, but that also put the antennas closer to the pre amp. how close should the antennas be together? right now they are within 5 feet of one another where they were about 10 feet apart. i would put it up higher...

    directional to multi-directional

    I have a 91 xg model that picks up great for what stations i do get which is about 10. but i should be getting fox, cbs (and i lost abc when i lowered my antenna a bit), all coming in from the same direction and im not getting those channels. I am just curious to whether a multi directional 4...

    xg 91 vs. db8

    yes thats exactly what i have, a uvsj, xg91,and ya 1713. i guess ill just go with the 5 foot antenna drop and see where that leads. 11 channels is nothing to scoff at.

    Wi Fi antenna

    I was searching amazon and came across a book called how to get free wifi, by building your own antenna. this sounds a lot like pirating to me, does anyone know anything about this or if it is legal?

    xg 91 vs. db8

    yes its a 91. 3.1 is coming in about every time i turn the antenna though, the only 3 times i have tried it when it was turned. im going to need to lower it when warm weather gets here because the top pole is bending a little bit causing it to point more upward than it is supposed to. but still...
