My experience is that an 80% signal is not good enough because the signal strength fluctuates too much. If your best is 80 you will from time to time drop to 40 and that isn't enough. >The next move will be to buy some more antenna cable and try extending >the antenna outside, and above the level of our (flat) roof to see >what difference that makes. That should make a big difference. I bet that if you are getting 80 inside you will get 95 outside. >The alternative might (or might not!) be to get an HD tv and hook it >up to the Comcast cable Are you trying to feed multiple sets/boxes with your antenna? I would not do that until a good strong signal is established. Worse case you will only be able to feed 1 set from the antenna. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
