Remote control A/B antenna switching is Channel Surfing Friendly , push the button on the hand held remote control , change antennas and keep on channel surfing.

_________

Before buying the second antenna system , test reception with antenna system #1.
Turn the antenna to the direction of about 99 degree magnetic compass direction.

_________

As always , trees and tree leaves do a real fine job of reducing or blocking Tv reception and so do buildings and other obstructions including your own house.

It is best to install the antennas a location that has little obstructions to no obstructions of any type or kind in the directions of reception including your own house.

The Tv/s Must Channel Scan for the Broadcast Tv Stations Channels , sometimes named the 'Air Channels' or 'Antenna Channels' in the Tv setup menu because the Tv transmissions travel through the air from the transmitting antenna to the receiving antenna.

DO NOT channel scan for cable tv channels.
