Not much issues with overall reception.. just some random signal disruptions.. which is why I started this thread

Put the FreeVision antenna in/at a ~North East~ facing window aim the antenna at about 54 degree magnetic compass direction.

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

Use a Real and Actual magnetic compass to aim antenna.

If a long length of coax is required to connect the antenna that is in/at the window to the Tivo or TV , then so be it , because reliable reception is more important then objections to the long length of coax running through the living space.

Digital Tuners can develop -Digital Glitches- that are not cleared out with simple channel scans.

To clear tuner do Double Rescan.

Looks from that link that I might need to point in the upward angle assuming my antenna is An All Band UHF-VHF-FM
I can't seem to find my compass, so I need to get one just to get the most optimal direction. When I get it, I'll reset it and try double scan.

Thanks!
