    Antenna Advice

    You think that would work better than something like the cm-4228hd? Trying to pick up the 4 major networks and anything over that is gravy.

    Can't really see if i get any signal, its just not high enough to register on the autoscan. Might try the preamp route. If it doesnt work, at least I get all the austin channels. Thanks again Iceberg!

    That is the way i've pointed it. The austin stations come in anywhere from 75-100% on the tuner meter from the backside. I can receive 3 other waco stations (real channel 26, 44, 46) and 1 bryan station (real channel 50, which is 2 edge 100+ miles, hits around 72-75 on the signal meter!)...

    Hopper OTA Tuner Reviews Alternatives?

    Works well for me, however, like others have said, the tuning of the channels is slower than the TV tuners.

    So put the bad boy outside, got all the same channels plus a few more. Picked up 3-1 and 3-2, which is real channel 50 out of bryan/college station, which says on tv fool it is a 2 edge at a bit over 100 miles away, still not getting the 2 other waco stations I wanted. Shocked I can get the 2...

    New to OTA, looking for advice

    So I got the antenna (the 7694) set up in the attic, pointed towards Waco, picked up 26 channels. I am able to get all the major networks from austin and some from Waco, except for KCEN and KWTX in Waco. KCEN has Me-TV and This TV on virtual channels, which aren't on the Austin networks, so i'd...

    New to OTA, looking for advice

    So ended up just testing the old hanger on a coax cable method, to see what I can pick up before buying an antenna. Was able to get most of the green channels by putting the antenna in the attic. I was kinda surprised by this, based on the solar board used in the exterior walls. I am thinking...

    New to OTA, looking for advice

    Thanks for the input! I've got RG6 already run through the house, going to drop the same down the chimney, through the same opening my internet wire comes in. As someone who works in an IT related field, I know the consequences of poor wires. I thought about 2 antennas but didnt want to risk...

    3 TVs at this point. I might hook it up to the other rooms as well, just so I don't have to mess with the wiring again down the road.

    Hey all! Been trying to read up and figure things out, but really looking to get some thoughts from some of the more seasoned veterans on the OTA discussion. Hopefully the research I've done has me ahead of the game a bit, in understanding things around OTA. Anyhow, I live out in the country...
