Why Sassafras TVs lose channels
Some TVs in Sassafras keep losing channels after software updates. We check the tuner settings, disable automatic channel updates where they cause trouble, and confirm the signal is solid.
Where Sassafras's signal comes from
Mt Dandenong: 3.3 km at 353° (north), VHF horizontal. For this address we'd usually fit a compact VHF/UHF combination antenna.
The signal's route to Sassafras
Signal from Mt Dandenong travels 3.3 km to reach Sassafras, passing over Mount Dandenong (2.6 km out) on the way.
When we aim a Sassafras antenna we start at 353° and then peak it on the meter, because reflections can make the best direction a few degrees off the map bearing.
Reading the hills around Sassafras
Mt Dandenong is 3.3 km from Sassafras at 353° (north). On paper that is close, but hills and ridgelines between here and there cast radio shadows, and tall eucalypts absorb signal — more when they are wet. A house on the high side of a street may lock every channel while one in the gully below gets nothing on the same antenna.
