Re: Exactly my plan...
It depends on how you are defining more sensitive to interference. DTV is an all or nothing proposition. You pretty much get a perfect picture or you get nothing. So if your analog is very snowy, fades in and out, you are probably correct that your current setup is probably not going to work for that channel. In most cases this can be improved with a higher or larger antenna. You can also use a preamp out on the mast(do not cheap out on this option if you go this route, buy a channel master). Many people do not know that placing the antenna inside the attic will greatly reduce the signal, as compared to placing the antenna on the rooftop. If I remember correctly the usable limit for digital is about 90 miles vs about 125 for analog. Most people that live that far out will probably have alternate solutions anyway(usually sat). |
