Hi all you antenna experts! I would really appreciate some advice. I was able to get all the basic local channels before the switch to digital. After the switch we tried one of those digital converter boxes with our current roof-mounted old antenna, which didn't seem to work, then tried getting a different antenna from best buy. Not sure of the model, but maybe it wasn't the right type, high enough strength or we need an amplifier?
Our issue is not the distance to the main signal antenna, but our line-of-site to it is blocked by another smaller mountain "green mountain". We have also since purchased a newer smart hdtv, would it make a difference trying everything we already have with the newer tv? OR I have seen good reviews about antenna on amazon that make signal work when they didn't before. Can you advise if one of these or something else would work for me?
