Keilor Lodge's signal path
Signal into Keilor Lodge comes from the east-south-east, about 51 km away at Mt Dandenong. The path is mostly clear across established suburbs, so reception problems here tend to be about ageing hardware rather than geography. That is good news: it usually means a repair, not a new antenna.

What lies between Keilor Lodge and Mt Dandenong
Between Keilor Lodge and Mt Dandenong lie Keilor, Oak Park, Thornbury, Doncaster, Rangeview and Croydon South. Any tall building, ridge or tree line along that 51 km line affects what your antenna receives.
When we aim a Keilor Lodge antenna we start at 108° and then peak it on the meter, because reflections can make the best direction a few degrees off the map bearing.

Keilor Lodge antenna questions
Which way should my Keilor Lodge antenna point?
Toward Mt Dandenong, about 108° (east-south-east) and 51 km away, horizontally polarised on VHF. We aim with a meter, not by copying the neighbours.
My TV reception changed after solar panels went in — why?
Installers often bump the antenna or disturb the cable. Inverters can also radiate interference into old cable. We check alignment, cable and noise.
Do you work for property managers?
Yes. We meet tenants on site, send photos and meter readings, and quote at a fixed price.
