[mythtv-users] Can't get two antennas to work into two tuners

[Alen Edwards]

I have an antenna pointing north and one pointing east.  I tried 
combining them with a splitter, but that didn't work.

I put one antenna into each of two tuners.  I set up different 
configurations at Schedules Direct, one for the stations north 
2,4,5,7,... and one for the two stations east, 36,54.  I then set up 
sources correspondingly.  I connected one tuner to the north antenna and 
one to the east one.  I assigned tuners to sources appropriately.  I 
scanned for stations.  I did a database fill.

What I got in the channel lineup was a complete mess.  Things like this:
2_1, 2_2, 5_3, 7_2, 52#0, 5_1, 63#0, 7_1

Not exactly that, but this gives the idea.  Not in order and some 
strange non-existent and not of proper form stations (yes 63#0).

I finally gave up and connected all the tuners (there are actually 4) to 
antenna north and deleted antenna east and deleted all channels and did 
a rescan and all is well.  But I can't get the east stations.

One problem may be that the east antenna scan picks up stations from the 
north, although not well enough to actually watch.

I did this a few times with the same result (deleting all cards and 
starting over).

What did I do wrong?
