I use something like this amplifier: http://www.solidsignal.com/pview.asp?p=AP8700 A power supply goes on the antenna coax in the house and the amplifier goes on the antenna outside and gets power through the coax. I can get mostly decent signals from 150 miles or 240 kilometers away, but only the stations I have near line-of-site with. Some days I get no signal but most days I do. I use an antenna similar to this one: http://www.solidsignal.com/pview.asp?p=4228-HD and I need both amp and antenna to get a signal. But, who has time to watch TV anyway? -- Kirk Wallace http://www.wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/ http://www.wallacecompany.com/E45/index.html California, USA ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF email is sponsosred by: Try Windows Azure free for 90 days Click Here http://p.sf.net/sfu/sfd2d-msazure _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
