    New Antenna Signals

    I am at 4500 feet so I do have a good LOS. I had looked at a Motorola pre-amp that was recommended, can't remember the model though. It was bi-directional and got quite a few good reviews. So with a pre-amp you put this before the splitters? Actually I pick up almost 50+ channels but only want...

    New Antenna Signals

    My zip is 95255 I don't know what was replaced, looks like an old RS. My NBC station out of Sacramento is KCRA. I did disconnect one of the cables going to another TV so I only split my signal twice. It picked up 6% on the other two so I am now at 85%. Much better but would like to get...

    New Antenna Signals

    I shouls add that I use the MyFool directions and point for LOS for reception, but I can go 20-30 degrees north of that and I get the same signal strengths. I get pixelation at 65% or less.

    New Antenna Signals

    I just purchased a new antenna from Solid Signal, Winegard HD 7698P. This was to replaced an old damaged unit that worked well until it broke. This was a recommendation from SS according to my Zip Code. My question is about signal strengths because I can direct this 20 to 30 degrees and get the...

    Indoor HD antenna

    I haven't really thought about my attenna until I read a few posts here. Right now I have Dish with locals but have an older mast, at least 10-15 years old that pulls in stations from Sacramento pretty good. I would like to get rid of the big, ugly attennae and replace with smaller unit. I like...

    Sound loss

    Thanks, when I get home next week i will try adjusting the antenna a bit more. The other day I was just trying to keep the wind from taking it down. I really can't believe how good of a picture I can get from so far away. The HD is unbelievable and this is from an antenna that has to be over 10...

    Sound loss

    I haven't contacted the station yet on KOVR, no signal. The other is KMAX with great picture and no sound. What do you mean by multi-path? I haven't really taken the time to really adjust my antenna because I really didn't use it and can't believe the almost perfect pictures I am getting from...

    Sound loss

    I just figured out my OTA channels and they are great except for two/ One I get a perfect picture but no sound. The other is one channel that has only the yellow screen saying it is obtaining signal but no signal. All of my other HD OTA channels come through with no problem. Just these two. I am...
