[SOLVED] Boost TV Antenna Signals

[johnsi7786]

Hi Everyone! I need your help in boosting TV Antenna signals. I purchased a TV Antenna last week but it is not showing channels perfectly. Need your help.

What kind? Like an internal small antenna? There is not much hope, you need optical line of sight to get a decent signal.

Mount the antenna outside. There are many of them available depending on what you need.

TV Antennae' performance depends on two major things:

• distance to the TV transmitter;
• Antennae' design - dipole, rabbit ears.

For USA, there are websites which can recommend TV antenna' size depending on location.

Third thing is orientation of the front of the antenna (smallest cross pieces) to the transmitter. If you live somewhere that the transmitters are all co-located then you can point in one direction, if you live somewhere that the transmitters are geographically distributed then you may not be able to easily get all the channels.
