signal break up

Thank you Elmo ,
I used a splitter with intentions of adding a second tv , but it works ok with an indoor antenna , same problems as living room tv on roof antenna . I did cap the unused side of the splitter .
the living room tv is the important one , it's the one the wife watches
[ channel 2-1 NCIS ] . I have aimed the antenna from south to sse .
I think from what you have said , I'm going to first run the cable directly from antenna to tv if that doesn't do it I will try tweaking the direction . I'm assuming the small end of the antenna should be pointing in a southerly direction ?
ps . both antenna and splitter are connected to a grounding rod with heavy gauge copper wire , if I eliminate the splitter is the antenna ground enough ?

Again thank you , naturl
