I've done that with other stations and they've been responsive. However, I don't think it can be "fixed" by you.

It's probably a change on their end. I just started getting NBC as a new channel though it works off and on every time. Could it be that they could be fixing something? Cause I know its not me. I remember it happened to ABC when I first got the channel.

There are a lot of factors that could cause you to lose that channel intermittently including atmospheric effects and local electronic interference. My antenna works perfectly when my Firestick is not inserted. When I insert the Firestick, all channels on the antenna are broken up along with the voice.

I never move the antenna. This is interesting. The aluminum foil worked!!!! Could there be any electrical problem with the foil near the power? Thanks a lot. All clear as a bell. For past several months the channels are glitchy. I did a rescan and got only 5 channels and none of them come in clear. I got a new Mohu. Same glitchy problem. So, some stations that used to be strong might become weak and vice versa. This is a tough situation because you have stations to the west slightly northwest , due east, and due south.

Try rotating your antenna a little bit at a time between due east clockwise, testing your TV reception along the way by doing scans until you hit a little north of west. Take detailed notes along the way. Unfortunately, I don't think there's one direction that will let you get all channels assuming this is a directional antenna.

You could get a rotator, i. Or, put up another antenna pointed in a different direction and switch between them. Positioned somewhere like a corner room with two windows. Yes, absolutely! I did the search and they all came up in orange no channels except fox and that was weak.

I live about 80 miles south west of chicago where I get my channels. I have a smart tv and a 4k firestick. I've been subscribing to directv, but I want to cut out that cost. Can I just use my smart tv and get an indoor antenna? I have tried that in the past and it was touch and go. Are there any good indoor antennas out there better than the wish one or do I need to get an outdoor antenna?

I live in an apartment building in a small town of like I said about 80 miles south west of chicago. We don't watch too many shows and I have an amazon prime account usually just rewatch same shows using the internet for netflix or amazon vudu etc, but we do follow the cardinals and up here they you can't get their games without satellite and paying extra for the sports package.

Regarding an antenna, the only way to know what kind will work for sure is through experimentation or by asking other folks near you who are using an antenna. An outdoor antenna will get you the most channels but no guarantee they'll be the one you want. Ask a neighbor with an antenna on their roof what channels they are getting.

I live in Windsor, Ontario which is just south of Detroit. How do I position my outdoor antenna to receive the best reception? The majority of your stations are to the northwest. There are also some to the northeast and southwest. I would try aiming my antenna due north in your case. I have been looking for a way to get better tv antenna reception for a long time.
