Hi chrisc909

I am in Riverside. I had Voom installed about two weeks ago. I got no OTA
channels, not suprising considering the installers halfhearted atempt. I put in
a call for an antenna upgrade. While waiting I tried pulling off the diverter or
whatever it's called, connected the voom cable direct and connected the little
radioshack ant ( already on my roof) to the OTA input. I now get all the OTA
channels, even more than I got with this ant. connected to an analog TV tuner. I
wonder why my installer didn't think to try this. The ant. and cable where
already there.

I was supprised how little of the local OTA programing is HD and have yet to
see any OTA programing (SD or HD) broadcast in DD5.1

Thanks for the reply Emilio. Maybe I will not give up so quickly. Any idea on what antenna is on your roof? Is it amplified?

Sorry, don't remember the model, I bought it years ago at radio shack.
It was your basic middle of the line VHF/UHF antenna. It is not
amplified and is on about an 8ft mast.
