Looking for some help with my antenna reception.
I have an Antennas Direct Clearstream 4-V antenna mounted on a 5" tripod
on the peak of my roof. Total antenna height is 35'.
I also installed a juice preamp. The cable length is about 70'.
We are on a very large hill and there are NO obstructions (i.e. trees, large buildings, etc)
I am located about 20 miles north of Toronto, Ontario.
For the most part, we get Buffalo stations consistantly with the exception of WGRZ (NBC).
Usually the signal strength is quite good - in the early morning it is sometimes 100%.
The signal quality is usually acceptable from 60 - 70%.
(according to my Sylvania SPAT102 ATSC Set Top Box)
I have peaked the antenna's pointing direction specifically for WGRZ (NBC).
All connections and cables have been triple checked.
Since the signal quality is quite good (most times) I was wondering if there is
a solution for picking up WGRZ reliably. The signal strength and signal quality are
high (70% & 80%), then all of a sudden they both go to 0 for a few seconds.
I know there is a trial and error curve, but I am at a loss as to what to try next.
I would rather not increase the height of the antenna if possible.
Maybe there is another antenna that would be better for me?
I have completely cut off the cable and satellite so we rely on the antenna 100%. And it is enough for what we watch if we could just get NBC reliably.
Any advice would be appreciated.
