Some post installation reception issues
I picked up the DB4e and did a quick dry run in the attic just to see how many stations I could get. It worked pretty well with some problems....
1.) WGBH (PBS) 2-1 RF19 (-54db) comes in and out with pixilation, but the signal seems to be higher definition, is that possible.
2.) WCVB 5-1 RF20 (-55db) doesn't come in it all
But this farther station (and others in between) comes in fine....
WPBX 68 RF32 (-70db)
What would keep WCVB 5-1 RF20 from coming in?
Everything is attic mounted now, would a preamp or rooftop installation fix these problems? Would the bigger DB8 pull these in better if in the attic?
On the whole I have been impressed with the picture quality, my phase two is the VHF-Hi antenna installation. Could this second antenna be replaced with another VHF/UFH antenna so I can get the Rhode island PBS station I am missing?
I am guessing I can't because of freq overlap, but not sure why. Trying to understand this better.
