Finding the fault in Clayton
In multi-TV Clayton homes, which TVs fail tells us where to look. One room only points to that outlet or its cable; every room points to the antenna, its cable or the main splitter.
Where Clayton's signal comes from
Mt Dandenong: 21 km at 63° (east-north-east), VHF horizontal. Expect a compact VHF/UHF combination antenna, confirmed by meter on the day.
Clayton to Mt Dandenong: the path
Signal from Mt Dandenong travels 21 km to reach Clayton, passing over Notting Hill (1.9 km out), Wheelers Hill (5.2 km out), Wantirna South (10 km out), Boronia (15 km out), The Basin (18 km out) and Mount Dandenong (20 km out) on the way.
Practical tip: stand where your antenna is and face east-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.
Clayton's signal path
Signal into Clayton comes from the east-north-east, about 21 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.
