Thanks Daryl, I'm not sure I understood what you said. So I'll describe my
set up (hope this little ASCII diagram works OK!):

Antenna --
         |
  | --> TV1 (picture quality good)
  |
  | --> TV2 (picture quality good)
         |
  | --> Cheap $5 splitter
              |
              | --> HD Homerun (2 tuners) --> 1Gb switch --> Mythbackend
              |
              | --> PCI Card --> Mythbackend

Does that make sense? If you still think it's a signal strength issue is
there any way I can verify that? And if I need to get a booster, are there
different types which are better than others? E.g. do some install at the
antenna vs others install at the wall outlet?
