Yinnar South antenna questions
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.
Why is my picture worse on foggy mornings?
Wet antennas and cable lose a little signal. If your system has no margin, that is enough to cause dropouts. Better gain or a cable fix restores it.
Has my transmitter changed?
Channel frequencies have changed over the years. A rescan helps; if the antenna was aimed for an old arrangement, it may need re-aiming too.
