Tv antennas and Tv reception

Aim a ANT751 antenna up toward the top of the Tv transmitting tower at about 58 degrees magnetic compass. With the antenna aimed up , it might help reduce the amount of multipath (signal reflections) off of buildings and objects. And even though an other helper here says there is no signal overload , I suggest adding a second attenuator in to the coax line to further reduce the strength of the multipath. Digital broadcast tv tuners have circuitry that compensate and filter out the out of phase/time of the multipath , however the circuitry can only correct so much and then it's overload time. And also Older (2003 and older) digital Tv's / tuners are not as good at filtering out multipath as the newest Tv's.
