Thanks MisterMe for all the info.
Another question for you guys.
My signal strength is all over the place. Ill check it one time and its at 3, another time and its at 4 or 5 and this morning it was at 8!
This morning i rescanned the channels when it was at 8 and for a couple hours i was channel surfing through the 16 channels it tuned.
Tonight signal strength is down to 3 and i lost some of the channels and im getting pixelation and drop outs on others.
Had a busy day yesterday and havent had the chance to drag my TV upstairs. Im curious as to why the signal strength will hold solid for a extended period of time at a particular level and then drop off or increase at other times.
Weather has been clear and cold here, so i dont think thats a factor.
I have the pre-amp on order and hope to have it by end of week.
I suppose my issue could still be with the old RG59 run and possibly the crimped connections i made with the RG6 run from the basement to the TV. Although the RG6 connection worked fine when hooked up to Comcast cable.
I guess i need to get that TV upstairs to rule out the cable being an issue.
