When i lived in San Francisco and was very near the broadcast tower, my tv picked up the signal without any antenna attached. In fact, the pictures were worse when I hooked up my rabbit ears. BTW, add to your list of videos to make: Explain how various designs and components work. We see whiskers and rods and chicken wire looking stuff and reflectors. But these things are not on every antenna. So, why are they there and why are they not on all antenna'? How do they improve (if they do) reception? Thanks.

Wow! What a tower. With our high winds in the Winter on the Northern Oregon Coast, a set up like that would be pretty torn up. I envy you. Because of our winds I currently have the 91XG about 12 feet off the ground. Still LOS from the translators and unless I went up 200 feet I probably wouldn't get much else as I have mountains near by.

Interesting Channel Master Parascope series antenna being mentioned, I still have my 4250 being stored in my attic since 1981, I must have only used it a couple of months and realized there was just to much hill deflection. I'm enjoying this video, must be the nerd in me! Antenna guys videos are cool, and you were right Channel Master clams most powerful UHF antenna on the market optimized for channels 14-83, I still have the 1981-82 catalog, I never like paying so much for TV antennas but found a way to get them middleman direct back in the early 80's, and boy did I capitalize on that.

I no longer live there but the HOA at my previous address did restrict the placement of outdoor antennas ..... in the agreement you had to sign it said none may be mounted on the front side of your house faceing the street ...... you could mount it on the side or back of the house but not the front and since you signed a paper before comming into the community then you agreed to these terms

A good preamp does more than just boost the signal that would be lost in the cable. A good preamp may have a lower noise figure than the first amp stage in the tv tuner. The noise figure of the first amplifier stage set's the noise level of the system, so yes, a good preamp can permit reception of channels you wouldn't get without it, even if the cable was short. It's very application specific though, and it has to be a good amp. Not a $10 special.

This. KitzTech amps have the lowest noise ratings on the market. They are also one of the few manufacturers with a 0db to 18db for a variable gain antenna. These are perfect for suburban and urban areas so you can exactly dial in the gain you need to prevent overload.

Why did the FCC make stations broadcasting on the VHF bands limit the power levels so low?

Because a lot of TV stations were short spaced after the FCC sold a large chunk of TV spectrum to cell phone companies. The power limited had to be reduced so that TV stations on the same RF channel in nearby markets didn't interfere with each other.

No, you can't use a satellite as an antenna for local TV channels. You must install a TV antenna. You can put an antenna on the existing satellite mast and use the existing cable but it has to be done a very specific way or you will mess up your reception.

That Televes antenna was mine. The one I use is their top of the line model. I have tried about 5 different popular outdoor antennas and this one has been the best, for me, so far. I will say that it has the best Build Quality, that I have seen so far. Signal has been very solid and strong and survived TWO hurricanes. Yes, It does have the built-in preamp and LTE filter, which I saw a a great thing as it leaves less room for signal loss. The supplied power supply comes with outputs for 2 TV's and they offer models that have outputs for 3 and/or 4 tv's too. Again, fewer connections = less loss. I am also using quad shield pure copper core coax. As for size of the antenna, l have the DAT790 LR VHF/UHF mix and it's about 83" long. Not what I would call small.

The Portland OR stations were planing to start April 20th, but because of the virus, it has been pushed up to at least June. A CE told me that the Korean & Chinese companies are now making ventilators rather than transmitters and other broadcast equipment for the time being. Who knows when 3.0 will start? We are waiting out here on the Oregon Coast, as come April 20th, the Portland stations were going to start stacking, giving us 25 OTA channels from 16. But that has been pushed up, so no COZI or Antenna TV OTA as yet until at least June. We do have have METV, Get TV, etc OTA, but not everything.

Crimp are bad for UHF. Slight change in impedance causing an impedance bump and acts like a small blockage in a pipe. Technically all connectors cause this to a small degree, crimp is just a bit worse. You need to terminate unused ports as they can (and will) cause a reflection that can interact with the signal. 75 ohm terminator will correctly absorb the signal out the port and not allow this reflection. More of an issue with UHF.
