Point Lonsdale: across the bay or the local repeater?
Older antennas around Point Lonsdale were often installed for whichever site the neighbours used, and many have never been checked since. If your picture is unreliable, the first question is whether the antenna suits the site it is pointed at — a UHF antenna aimed across the bay at a VHF transmitter will never be stable.

The signal's route to Point Lonsdale
Draw a line from Point Lonsdale toward Mt Dandenong at 53° and it crosses Parkdale, Dingley Village, Mulgrave, Scoresby, Mountain Gate and Boronia before reaching the transmitter 82 km away.
Practical tip: stand where your antenna is and face north-east. If you can see a big tree, a new two-storey house or a hill within a few hundred metres, that is the first suspect.

Point Lonsdale: quick answers
Why did my picture get worse after a new antenna went up?
Often because it was a different type, or pointed at the other site. We check both the antenna type and the aim.
Does raising the antenna always help?
Not always over water — reflections can cancel the signal at certain heights. We test different heights with a meter.
My antenna points the opposite way to my neighbour's — is one wrong?
Not necessarily. You may be on different sites. What matters is that the antenna type matches the site it points at.
