Why Hastings TVs lose channels
If a retune does not fix it, the signal is the problem. We meter at the wall plate — in Hastings, Mt Dandenong should arrive on VHF 6, 7, 8, 11 and 12 (plus UHF 32 for C31) — and tell you whether it is the antenna or the TV.
Before we start in Hastings
Mt Dandenong: 54 km at 15° (north-north-east), VHF horizontal. Expect a high-gain VHF/UHF combination antenna on a mast that clears the ridge, confirmed by meter on the day.
The signal's route to Hastings
Signal from Mt Dandenong travels 54 km to reach Hastings, passing over Pearcedale (12 km out), Cranbourne West (23 km out), Hampton Park (31 km out), Upwey (46 km out) and Ferny Creek (49 km out) on the way.
When we aim a Hastings antenna we start at 15° and then peak it on the meter, because reflections can make the best direction a few degrees off the map bearing.
Why coastal antennas fail early in Hastings
Hastings is 54 km from Mt Dandenong. Over water the path is usually strong, which means coastal reception problems are almost always hardware, not distance.
