Wow, i just typed a huge reply but it erased it.
Ok, by direct selection do you mean just key in the channel?
The only two choices for scanning are air and cable. I've had air selected from the get go.
I'm with you for knowing the truth and actually using the brain.
I did a signal strength test on the wmc box connected via hdhr and 18 is perfect signal 5/5 bars. Also the wmc box picks up 16 additional channels that the pioneer tv doesn't pick up with its built in tuner. I might try manually punching these in to the pio. My thing is that 18 still is pixelated on the pio but perfectly clear on the wmc box...
I was at lowes and saw barrel connectors rated 3ghz and splitters rated 2ghz. I know my splitter is 1ghz , does this affect anything? On my ports it has 4db on the one rated 2 ghz it had 8db... If I am splitting just 4 way, do I still need a signal amp? How do I tell something like this? I know I need to fully read through the install guide by channel master.
Now I am wondering if buying a preamp will actually hurt my signal since all the channels i want (abc,nbc,cbs,cw..etc) show perfect signal on wmc but only 12-40 out of 100 on my pioneer plasma....
