Help!

I have a Channel Master 3018 antenna pointing north, why can't I receive channel 11 reliably?

What is the signal strength of channel 11 when you do get it?

As the other question askers do.

Please post a real and Active tvfool radar report plot.

Not a Picture of a tvfool report.

It's only < 4 miles away. You're probably encountering a case of strong multi-path signals.

You can try an attenuator, but usually moving the antenna will solve such situations.

How do I post a real and Active tvfool radar report plot? Sorry...I'm new at this.
When I receive channel 11, the signal can be very strong(10 bars on my samsung) to very weak to nothing at all. When I receive nothing at all, I'm normally able to rotate my antenna to the North east direction and receive it, but then I start to lose channel 13 and channel 2. Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it.

Here is one way ,

Go to the tvfool home page and click on >>Start MAPS<< .

Make a tvfool report using Exact address and make the antenna height 15 feet.

Click on the button , Make Radar Plot.

Next.

At the top left of the computer screen is the address bar.

Copy Exactly what is in the address bar , on to paper.

Will start like this , http://

Return to your thread and use the link.

The round blue circle with the double chain link.

Copy Exactly the address bar information in to the link box.

This will make a link to the tvfool radar plot report.
