[mythtv-users] boosting my HD signal

[Dan Wierenga]

I finally got my antenna up on my roof, and I get a few HD stations really
well, and I get some pixelation on some others, and some I don't get at
all.  I live in Los Angeles which from other posts to the list should have
all the stations broadcasting from the same place, Mt. Wilson.  From that I
would expect to get all the channels with roughly the same quality, but
there is a dramatic difference between the best quality channel and the
worst quality channel.

Is there anything I can do to get my signal a bit better?  Like a signal
amplifier, or something?   I currently have coax cable plugged straight into
my antenna to my 3 televisions via a line splitter.  It's roughly 50 feet of
coax cable from the antenna to the splitter, and another 50-100 feet from
the splitter to each TV.

I've assumed that if my TV doesn't show a good signal then MythTV won't
record a good signal either; someone please correct me if I've missed some
facet of signal correction on the MythTV backend...


Thanks,
Dan
