Hello,
I posted in this forum before on a DB2e I mounted and the help I got solved the reception problems I was having. That was for one unit. We have another unit that needs reception and I followed the previous advice and purchased a C2V this time. I have mounted it above the top roofline (~ 27 feet above the ground) and pointed it 310 degrees. I leveraged the 4-way splitter from the DIRECTV installation and the RG6 cable from the DirecTV installation for two of the thee TV sets I have hooked up.
My TV signal analysis is at:

Here are the issues:
1. The TV closest to the splitter (i.e. the cable run is about 20 feet) gets all the channels (about 100 of them). The only problem with this set is that Channel 7 (7.1, 7.2, 7.3) breaks up about 10% of the time when viewing. This cable was leveraged from the DIRECTV installation.
2. The next TV (about 30 feet from the splitter) gets 104 channels but channel 7 is so poor that it only comes in about 10% of the time and I have to move the signal cable around to get that 10%. This cable was also leveraged from the DIRECTV installation.
3. I added a 50 foot run of RG6 cable to one more set and that only gets 4 channels (26, 36, 65, and one other)
Is the signal degradation that significant based on cable length to cause these problems or are there other items I have overlooked?
Thanks for the help.
