Hey folks,
A few details: I live in Salt Lake City, and according to antennaweb I'm 19 miles away from the broadcast towers (which, I believe, are on top of a nearby mountain).
I upgraded from an older monoprice outdoor/indoor antenna to an omnidrectional RCA (amplified) indoor antenna. Upgrading from the monoprice to the RCA gives me consistently better reception except for one channel (Fox). For some reason, that one channel is pretty glitchy. I get OK reception for a while, but then I'll get artifacting and lose the signal for about 10-20 seconds. This happens all the time! I rarely, if ever have this problem with the other channels (excepting the occasional storm, etc).
The broadcast towers for all the stations are in the same location, so it's not a matter of distance or anything. I'd also imagine that Fox would be broadcasting at the same signal strength as the other stations (but I don't have any way to verify that ...)
Any thoughts on why only one channel would have bad reception while the others are all fine?
Thanks!
