ALL questions and answers about broadcast tv reception and More.

The following is a Teleview - Recommendation for Broadcast Tv Reception.

A Simple reception situation.

Above the roof install a Winegard HD7696P antenna with no preamplifier , aimed at about 240 degree magnetic compass direction.

For 1 Tv connected use no splitter.

Here is how to aim antennas , http://www.kyes.com/antenna/pointing/pointing.html.

Here are some above the roof antenna mounts , http://www.ronard.com/909911.html , http://www.ronard.com/34424560.html , http://www.ronard.com/ychim.html , http://www.ronard.com.

Buy the ronard antenna mounts at solidsignal by typing the word ronard in the solidsignal search box.

Here are places to buy antennas and etc. , http://www.solidsignal.com , http://www.winegarddirect.com , http://www.amazon.com.

The Digital Tv stations/channels in the , Green , Yellow , Red , reception zones down to and including WWJX UHF channel 23 Legacy Tv , http://legacytv.wordpress.com , should be reliably received.

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

It is best to locate the HD7696P antenna at a location that has little to no obstructions to antenna reception in the directions of west and south east.

The Tv Must Channel Scan for the Digital Broadcast Tv 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.

WRBJ UHF channel 34 , CW and Antenna Tv , is a Very Strong transmission at your location and will most likely be received even though the HD7696P antenna is not aimed at the station.

WMPN-DT UHF channel 20 PBS and WMAW-TV UHF channel 44 PBS are both the same PBS . so no requirement to receive UHF 44. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mississ...c_Broadcasting
