New 5g cellular bands launched by Verizon are eating up the airwaves affecting antenna tv in my area. Booster/amplifiers don’t get you more channels from a far they will increase the signal strength of what is within range.
Yeah I don’t use an external booster, the antenna has it built internally to the unit.New 5g cellular bands launched by Verizon are eating up the airwaves affecting antenna tv in my area.

We have a VHF Channel 2 about 75 miles away and my indoor Mohu pro picks it up, but the UHF station 35 miles away is very hit or miss.The antenna you purchase and where you mount it is going to be predicated on whether or not there are any Lowband VHF (2-6) and/or Highband VHF (7-13) channels that you are trying to pull-in. Some antennas advertise that they can receive these channels when they can't. Low VHF signals are particularly difficult to receive and you need a necessarily physically large antenna to receive the long wavelength signals.
ATSC 1.0 digital TV doesn't always work the way that you think.We have a VHF Channel 2 about 75 miles away and my indoor Mohu pro picks it up, but the UHF station 35 miles away is very hit or miss.
Sucks to be in between TV markets, no true local stations so I need to move the antenna around if I want to watch certain channels.
Worse it’s a rental so no arial
Why we have HOA's. LOLI made a Gray-Hoverman design antenna some (8?) years ago from a scrap of 2x4 and some suspended ceiling wire that I had on hand. Dimensions available online. Much to my neighbors' dismay, it's hanging from my chimney and still going strong.
Someday I'll add a second element pair or a backplane if I find a suitable refrigerator shelf or grill grate.
HOAs have to approve antennas? Or just antennas that don't look store bought?Why we have HOA's. LOL
That would depend on your HOA. You would have to read your covenants.HOAs have to approve antennas? Or just antennas that don't look store bought?
they definitely dislike them and I definitely dislike HOA'aHOAs have to approve antennas? Or just antennas that don't look store bought?
In my 60 year old middle-class neighborhood with no HOA, it would take far greater than a homebrew antenna to determine if I'm a good or bad neighbor. Which is, as it should be.they definitely dislike them and I definitely dislike HOA'a
1. No, HOAs do not get to "approve" anything. (though some may not know it *LOL*)HOAs have to approve antennas? Or just antennas that don't look store bought?
HOA's cannot prevent you from putting up an antenna. It's Federal Law as stated above.Why we have HOA's. LOL
they have bullied me! I cant even plant a flower they do not approve of and limit number of "approved" and where. I'll present this to the HOA regarding antennasHOA's cannot prevent you from putting up an antenna. It's Federal Law as stated above.
