With upgraded SiliconDust tuner fewer reception failures.
ATSC 3.0 lighthouse transmitter at Sutro Tower (RF 7)

Up to 20 percent improvement in signal quality surprising ( in a good way).
Using legacy scripts. Calculated values may be invalid for newer tuner.
Not going to pay for developer software for new tuner at this time.

My trusty Extend failed. Cannot perform A/B test.
Same antenna, LTE filter, preamp and cabling as before.
RCA preamp due for a replacement.

Annoyed one needs to purchase a MS HEVC plugin to receive ATSC 3.0 video with
SiliconDust W10 app.
Too bad stock VLC lacks AC-4 audio support. Can view ATSC 3.0 video with no sound.
