What a Frankston South repair involves
We start at the TV: is the fault on every channel or just some, every TV or just one? That narrows it to the antenna, the cable network or the set itself. Then we meter at the wall plate and at the antenna. In Frankston South, with Mt Dandenong 43 km away, a healthy system shows plenty of margin; anything less tells us where the loss is.
Frankston South transmitter check
Mt Dandenong: 43 km at 24° (north-north-east), VHF horizontal. Most likely: a mid-gain VHF/UHF combination antenna on a short mast above the roofline.
The signal's route to Frankston South
Draw a line from Frankston South toward Mt Dandenong at 24° and it crosses Skye, Eumemmerring, Lysterfield and Tremont before reaching the transmitter 43 km away.
When we aim a Frankston South antenna we start at 24° and then peak it on the meter, because reflections can make the best direction a few degrees off the map bearing.
Terrain and TV in Frankston South
Mt Dandenong is close to Frankston South, but close is not the same as visible. Ridgelines, gullies and tall timber mean the strongest signal may arrive from an unexpected direction, reflected off a nearby slope. We sweep the antenna on the meter rather than assuming the map bearing.

Frankston South antenna repair questions
How quickly can you fix my TV in Frankston South?
Same day in most cases if you call before 11am. We work 7 days, 8am–9pm.
Why are only some channels missing in Frankston South?
Different networks sit on different frequencies, so a marginal antenna or a lossy cable can drop some and keep others. Mt Dandenong broadcasts on VHF 6, 7, 8, 11 and 12 (plus UHF 32 for C31); we meter each one.
Do you fix storm damage?
Yes — bent elements, turned antennas, blown amplifiers and flooded connectors. We carry common parts in the van.
