I had asked previously how to get better signal. Best answers were to get residential antenna.
I'm ready to get an antenna now, but what to I do about the OEM powered switch by the tv? Do I leave it off? Or will that prevent signal from passing through? Or do I have it on, but where does the power go then? I don't think I want to send power to an aluminum antenna with no booster on it?
Thanks for any help.
Just curious how far are you at your seasonal site that you can't get locals?
I was planning to take my DTV box from Madison and bring it to Mauston, 70 miles away seasonal site. Was hoping to get local automatically up there
I am 170 miles from home and can get the Milwaukee locals on a very clear calm day. But I want to get the locals up there. Not for prime time, but for the local news for that area.
