I have been trying to see if i could get OTA tv here where we live in AL, we live in a valley in the middle of cotton and soybean fields with some mountains around us miles away. I got one antenna its a LAVA hd-2605 ultra uhf/vhf i pick up FOX-NBC-CBS and PBS. I got FOX all the way from ATLANTA channel 5.1 and channel 6.1 from BIRMINGHAM when i point at there towers.antenna is on roof about 23' off ground. After the channel is on awhile it go's out i can move the antenna just a click and rescan and its back on. ? is the signal shifting. And would bigger antenna help? Here my TV-FOOL report. Thanks to everyone http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=29&q=id%3dd243cae0ee2272for any help. THANK YOU.

Your TV Fool does not bring up the correct report. You might re-post it for viewing.

Those lava antennas are junk. Rural areas usually require large antennas. I can't recommend anything unless i see a tvfool report

You have to copy and paste the complete link, just like it's shown on your analysis page.

That still didn't work. Copy the entire link from the URL bar (either from the URL area or from near the top of the post) and paste it in a post. No need to format it.

It will look like this - the entire address bar contents. The forum software shortened it at the three dots ... but you need the whole line. Just copy the entire address and paste it into a blank line in your post.

That's my TVFool report, and when you click on it, it opens in a new tab. Yours should do the same.
