Over the air digital tv signals
Why would you have 5 bars of reception on the tv then there is no picture and a message says no signal.....a second ago there was a beautiful photo....What causes that??

We live in an area with limited OTA stations. Nearest is about 15 miles, furtherest is about 50. At our house I installed one of the flat panel antennas with an amplifier that I bought at Walmart. On the original tv set which was an older one and a comverter, we received only the two strongest stations. When that tv died, we bought a new 20+ flatscreen to replace it. With no other change, just connect the wire as it was, and on the first scan, we received about 27 stations, some we had never even heard of. Just the difference in the two receivers. In out Motor Home, there is also a big difference in what the two TVs will pick up off the same antenna wire. At least all the ones we receive are in english, I haven't found a TV yet that translates, but most now do have a language option.
