Need help with reception

[mc06]

Hello,
I recently installed an RCA ANT751R antenna. My reception is spotty; sometimes great and sometimes not at all. Antenna height is about 10' and is pointed to receive the channels to the SE. On the best days I can receive FOX, ABC, CBS, PBS. But usually only FOX comes in consistently.

The link to my info: http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wr...cc49b0fa5e12ed

Is there anything I can do to receive these channels better and can I put up a second antenna to receive the channels from the WSW? Any help would be great! Thanks.

The Digital Tv stations/channels , KCLO-DT CBS , KBHE-DT PBS , KNBN-DT NBC , KOTA 18 ABC , are - Weak signal strength - at your location.

The tvfool radar plot report and channel list shows No Antenna Height above ground.

To see what happens to signal strengths at higher antenna heights.

Please make 3 more tvfool radar plot reports / channel lists , 25 feet , 40 feet , 60 feet , above above ground.

Do not delete the first/origional tvfool radar plot and channel list.

How many Tv's are/will be connected??

Ideally we would have 2 tv connected...

To receive the receivable Digital Broadcast Tv stations/channels , one aim direction will do it.

NBC , ABC , CBS , PBS and other PBS channels , FOX , MyNetwork , CW , RTV , Me-Tv , This Tv.

Above the roof in such a manner that the roof and house do not block reception to the , south east , south west , north west.

Install a Winegard HD7084P antenna at about 25 feet above ground (higher is better) aimed at about 141 degree magnetic compass direction.

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

(Your location has receivable Tv stations/channels in ALL 3 Tv channel bands of ,

VHF low band channels 2 thru 6.

VHF high band channels 7 thru 13.

UHF band channels 14 thru 51.

The HD7084P antenna is designed to receive ALL 3 channel bands.)

______________________________________________________________

Try reception without a preamp.

KNBN NBC , KBHE PBS , KCLO CBS , are weak signal strength.

The HD7084P antenna receives more signal because it has more and longer metal receiving elements , so this makes the reception much stronger.

For 1 Tv connected use no splitter.

For 2 Tv's connected use a common simple 2 way splitter.

If there are some reception issues with weak signal strength tv stations (I do not think there will be any issues) , then install a Antennas Direct CPA-19 preamplifier.

For 1 Tv connected with the preamplifier , use no splitter.

For 2 Tv's connected with the preamplifier , use a , HFS-2D 2 way splitter.

Buy HFS splitters at , http://www.solidsignal.com or http://www.hollandelectronics.com.

Here are some above the roof antenna mounts , http://www.ronard.com/909911.html , http://www.ronard.com/Tripods%200703/4712.html , http://www.ronard.com/34424560.html if using the eve mount use the #4560 , http://www.ronard.com/ychim.html , http://www.ronard.com.

Buy the ronard antenna mounts at solidsignal by typing the word ronard in the solidsignal search box or buy from ronard.

Here are some places to buy antennas and etc. , http://www.solidsignal.com , http://www.amazon.com , http://www.winegarddirect.com.

As always , trees and tree leaves do a real fine job of reducing or blocking Digital Tv reception and so do buildings and other obstructions including your own roof and house.

It is best to install the HD7084P antenna at a location that has the least amount to no amount of obstructions of any type or kind in the directions of reception including your own roof and house.

The Tv/s Must Channel Scan for the Digital Broadcast Tv Channels , often named the 'Air Channels' or 'Antenna Channels' in the Tv setup menu because the Tv transmissions travel through the air from the transmitting antenna to the receiving antenna.

Digital Tv tuners can develop - Digital Glitches - that are not cleared out with a simple channel scan.

Do a Double Channel scan , http://www.dtv.gov/rescan.html.
