Thank u

I agree

I never went to cable TV, I still have my OTA installation - and actually use my old OTA antenna. But I rarely turn it on - there just isn't much of anything worth watching outside to occasional PBS show/special or news coverage of bad weather.

Who would have thought? Anyone with half a brain.

This is essentially paid endorsement advertising for Antennas Direct and the other named brand products that he is recommending. His presentation is good but with uneven video recording production, specifically the audio. ("Bad sound makes good video look bad.") His video recordings in this project are good and I make that judgment as a professional videographer since 1980. Antennas Direct markets some good antennas and peripheral equipment but they are overpriced and over-hyped. (Fortunately, their big margin pricing means if you shop hard on eBay you can find their antennas discounted by resellers.) I have tested some of them and continue to use one model in my difficult reception location. He has some good information but he fails to include other critical information and techniques. I’ve had experience with TV antennas since the 1950s and I have a continuous listing with an extensive amount of free TV antenna information on eBay. Search for "Winegard Antennas For HDTV" using the quote marks. I am not paid by any manufacturers and the reports of my ~60 years of experience with TV antennas is purely subjective.

Rev gunn heard you got a signal from heaven god is going to strike you silly for lying

@@reyleal3720 LOL! Love it, you had me rolling!

Do you switch between antennas, or combine them into one?

Mike McDonald antennas wear out over time i had this same prob and with a 30 dol antenna from walmart.com 30 feet in air in nowere i get 22 channels

Build yourself a Gary Hoverman or 4 bay screen bow tie antenna you wont have any problems picking up stations 100 miles away. you might need a pre amp but I would try it without first.

The switch to digital also has brought some changes on how much power the FCC allows broadcasters to use. It is different for each market, but many have to beam their signal at a lower power to cover their targeted market where they may have used to use an omni-directional broadcast antenna in analog days. The few remaining VHF band broadcasters are more limited on power now, and this has been the reason many moved to the UHF band where they are allowed more power. Nobody in my market (southern Wisconsin) is on VHF anymore for this reason, even if they still use their original channel identifier on the UHF band. UHF simply does not carry over the horizon as well as VHF. FCC wants to pack more stations on UHF and free up VHF for other things, so they take these steps to reduce interference on the frequencies.

@@bfhammer I heard just the opposite. Uhf band is getting smaller every time you look around. In Tampa Florida USF sold their frequencies and quit broadcasting on UHF channel 16. There are signals on my tv but not viewable. Wireless bought the frequencies and are using them for wireless services. I heard the FCC wants to put tv on VHF and there goes the small antennas. Still don't know what's really going to happen. There is also talk about putting 2 tuners on all new tvs and the birth of new frequencies and must be connected to the internet to make TV 2 way. I hope not I'm happy not having a bill to pay for television service. I like only one bill for Internet and TV being free. Phone is prepaid and no other services needed.

I know you have probably done this, and may be insulted by being reminded of these basic steps. However, you’re not getting a decent signal in circumstances where everyone else in America would be receiving more channels than they could count. Assuming you have a modern HDTV that auto-programs your tuner, be sure the band is set to broadcast, and not cable. If you have an antenna amplifier, be sure to use it is plugged in to a proper power supply (i.e. wall socket USB) and not to a USB port on your TV (not enough power to run anything). Then use auto-program and auto-program every channel that is offered. Still having terrible reception? Be sure that the antenna wire is actually connected to the antenna and has good continuity all the way to your TV. Also, follow the suggestions as to wire quality and connectors, etc. in this video. Good Luck.

Metal roof over attic antenna will block out or greatly reduce signal reception. Putting an outside antenna a couple feet above the metal roof will work great, and the metal roof acts like a signal reflector off the metal. You can either ground the metal roof or try electrically isolate the metal roof and directly connect the TV output to the roof itself.

Depending on where you live you can still use the same analog TV antenna. Mine is a channel master.

Yes, excellent points, thanks. His is essentially paid endorsement advertising for Antennas Direct and the other named brand products that he is recommending.

I lived in Fontana, Ca. I picked up about 110 channels. But Fontana is flat and open directly to Mt.Wilson, where almost all L.A.s transmitters are. 35 miles away. And that was with just a bent piece of welding rod.

FYI: Antenna TV is available on Cable, perhaps just not all cable provides provide it.

@@guytech7310 But thats the point. Why pay for cable when all I want is available thru airwaves for $0 ? Its like this. When I was younger, I was fortunate enuf to recieve channels 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, and UHF. And that was more than enough. Now with cable, I have 700 channels, but not a frikkin thing that interests me, most the time. And if there is something I wanna watch, there's 500 other channels showing it too, making sure that the guy not interested in what I am doesnt have anything to watch. And I thought the whole idea behind it anyways was to eliminate sponsors? Nope, those pesky salesmen even got their foot in that door too. So might as well get it thru airwaves and save my money and go to tahiti myself, instead of watching some other guy do it on TV

HOW ABOUT WATCHING "VELOCITY" (MOTOR TREND TV), USA, CNN, & FOX????

I live in Royal Palm Beach and just bought the fire tv recast from Amazon, I was getting 60 channels when I connected the recast I only received 30 something, I was wondering if you have tried the recast and had the same issue?? If not would you be interested in borrowing mine to make a video?

Yup. I use an inexpensive antenna. Works great. I live in the city, though.

Is this on your RU-vid info ..??

Demo HOW do you find out PRIOR to purchasing all this stuff if ANY stations are available?

@@joandodds7626 you can find that information online pretty easily. Every metropolitan city will have some tv stations.

Don't know if my experience can help you or not - I recently decided to draw Social Security (reduced benefits) at age 62 due to health issues. I googled "free internet" and other similar terms. I didn't find any service that was totally free in my area, but did locate one that was $10.00 per month, 28 Mbps and unlimited, with no data caps (some parts of the country did, I believe, have free services available). I sincerely hope you can find something that will help you out of your situation. And, thank you for your service. May God be with you.

Contact the free attorney services in your area. By law an HOA cannot keep you from erecting an antenna.

Just providing your HOA with the FCC’s rule/law that they cannot prevent you from having an OTA (Over-The-Air) antenna for free TV on your outside space, e.g., a balcony, will quash their prohibition. They might come back with a new rule that you have to paint it to match something but you can point to the unpainted satellite dish antennas that may already be in place.

Here is another idea internet TV you can get a Roku set up for around $30 and use WiFi Roku is kind of like Basic cable but no local channels basic service is free Movie channel cost like we have Netflix that runs about $10 a month they do carry others like Hulu, CBS all Access, ETC not sure of the cost on those but you can find out everything by looking at their web site. There are other out there including one that runs $400. Everything is Al la carte so you do not have to get some package that you do not want. Roku it's self with the free channels has no monthly charge. PS they even have a box for older tv's so if you are still using an old CRT type with out HDMI or USB hook ups they got you covered! :) For internet check with the Telephone companies and see if they can do better! I think my brother pays $75.00 with his Dish account that is through Centurylink former Mtn. Bell.

I've tried up high on My roof didn't work better ..put it on the ground got more channels so up higher is not better

my feelings exactly

@GashCam Or, stop being hateful to trans people.

Why did you watch this?

No one is hateful to the person just their lifestyle which is no sin.

Roku

Just close your eyes and imagine what Putin would say.

you, hannity and carlson have a Mueller New Year!

Yeah. It seems the more channels they added the less there is to watch. I remember we'd get 7 out of 12 channels and that was plenty. Then this digital shit came along and now I got 110 channels with nothing to watch (unless I know Spanish, Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese, Korean, or Armenian) How the fuck did that happen?

pepole voted wrong

@@emmittepappas3714 I'll say. That was the year I voted for Oblama.

Yes junk channels but I get more channels than I do buying cable box. I could watch M.A.S.H also, Lol.

Nothing im willing to pay money for for sure9

Michael Ash - "Exterior antennas require professional installation". A pretty broad statement, and not true at all. Thousands of ham radio operators worldwide prove that wrong every day. Installing antennas safely requires knowledge, but you don't have to hire a "professional" to do it for you.

Maybe for a moron! Its not rocket science,there called apps,websites and SMARTPHONES!

Michael Ash, "surgery"? Not even close. If you are lazy or a complete idiot that cant follow instructions then maybe it would be difficult. With your most likely low IQ how do you even cross a street? Oh yeah, they make crossing guards for ppl like you that ride the short bus.

@@silvershooter555 you shouldn't watch MSNBC anyway, it's fake news!

@@---H_M Maybe you meant to reply to @Michael Ash, not me. He's the one that mentioned MSNBC.

Even if they're free?

Thats ridiculous
