“We live in a narrow valley so when they went digital we lost all broadcast TV. I even tried a new TV and a couple expensive antennas but no luck.”
I went with an amplifier antenna placed outside under the eave. Made a world of difference. So say the old world rabbit ears work better indoors.
Did you ever have an outdoor antenna?
Yes, I tried 3 different pricey ones on a 30’ pole. With analog, a coverage map I found said that I was only getting double deflection(?) signal. Meaning the signal had to be scattered by ground clutter twice to hit my house. As soon as it went digital I get absolutely nothing. Not even a hint that there may be something there to pick up by wiggling the antenna.
