TV Antenna questions, answered by experts

Most repairs take 1-4 hours, but complex signal issues may require further troubleshooting.

The shorter the coaxial cable, the better. The further you run the cable, the more signal loss you'll experience. At 50 feet, you'll see significant signal loss, and by 100 feet, you'll experience at least a 30% drop in signal strength.

If you’re having problems with poor reception, here are some simple tips that may help improve the signal and picture quality.

Consider the position of the antenna: Could it be higher, is it secure, or are nearby obstructions interfering with the signal? For a directional antenna, you may need to reposition it in the direction of the broadcast tower.
Move any metallic objects: Metal can interfere or block reception, so if you have stainless steel objects or the antenna is near a wrought-iron fence, this could be a problem. Try to keep the antenna at least six feet away from metal objects..
Cable length: An overly long cable can reduce signal strength. If you don’t need as much cable as you are using, it may be better to exchange it for a shorter one.

Options include outdoor, indoor, and rooftop antennas. Choose based on signal needs and location.

DIY is possible for minor adjustments, but professionals ensure proper alignment and signal strength.
