What lies between Hazelwood North and Mt Tassie
The 16 km path from Hazelwood North to Mt Tassie at 155° crosses open country, water or areas outside the suburbs we list, so local obstructions near your roof matter more than anything along the way.
The path to the Churchill repeater is only 4.7 km, bearing 207° (south-south-west).
When we aim a Hazelwood North antenna we start at 155° and then peak it on the meter, because reflections can make the best direction a few degrees off the map bearing.

Hazelwood North antenna questions
Which transmitter should my Hazelwood North antenna point to?
The candidates are Mt Tassie (16 km, 155°, UHF horizontal), plus the Churchill repeater (4.7 km, UHF horizontal). We meter them from your roof and choose the cleanest.
Why does my TV work some days and not others?
Usually because the antenna is pointed at a marginal site, or water is getting into a connector. Weather changes the signal path and the cable loss. We find which one it is with a meter.
Do you install LTE/5G filters?
Yes. Near mobile towers, 4G/5G signals can overload TV amplifiers. A filter fixes it when the meter shows that is the cause.
