Olinda at a glance
Mt Dandenong: 3.1 km at 311° (north-west), VHF horizontal. Monbulk repeater: 3.9 km at 143°, UHF vertical. Most likely: a compact VHF/UHF combination antenna — or, where the Monbulk repeater meters cleaner, a UHF antenna mounted vertically and aimed at it.
What lies between Olinda and Mt Dandenong
Few mapped suburbs sit on the direct line from Olinda to Mt Dandenong (3.1 km at 311°), so the obstacles that matter are the ones closest to your antenna.
The path to the Monbulk repeater is only 3.9 km, bearing 143° (south-east).
The compass bearing (311°) is where we start. The final aim comes from the meter, which shows the strongest, cleanest lock on every channel.
Terrain and TV in Olinda
Low-power repeaters exist because of terrain like Olinda's. They rebroadcast the Melbourne channels on UHF into pockets the main transmitter cannot reach. The closest to Olinda is the Monbulk repeater, 3.9 km away at 143° (south-east), on UHF with vertical polarisation. Whether it beats the main transmitter at your address depends on your exact position, which is why we meter both.

Is it worth calling someone just to retune?
