The signal drop is different depending on which TVs are on. One of the Samsungs is the master bedroom, and is the one that is connected directly to the CM3414. The other Samsungs are in the 2nd and 3rd bedroom, and the Panasonic is in the family room. These are all coming from one output of the CM3414, to a 3 way splitter (a DirecTV leftover).

If I have the Master BR Samsung and the Family room Panasonic on, the signal is tolerable (Drops sound every few minutes but picture is fine). If I turn on either of the other BR Samsungs, the whole thing goes away. Individually, each Samsung TV is fine, but either the 2nd or 3rd bedroom with any other TV kills the whole signal. These TVs are also the closest to the antenna, being pretty close to directly under the spot in the attic where the antennas are.

Any individual TV gets a perfect signal on both WRC and WTTG. (those are the weakest channels, and the only ones that I tested since I don't care much about the others)



To answer your other question, CW 50 has been coming in fine all week. Before I got my 2nd XG91, it was very dependent on the weather. I can't seem to lose ION 66 no matter which way I turn my antenna.





This may all stop being a problem when I get my VHF antenna. I have a Y10-7-13 on the way which I'm hoping will be able to pick up WJLA and WUSA from DC, along with WBFF and WBAL from Baltimore if I split the difference on the aim.
