Re: Philips MANT940 HDTV antenna - signal MAGNET!
I couldn't agree MORE that this Antenna is an engineering miracle. At first, I mounted it about 3.5' to 4' above the ground on the same mast that my Direct TV Antenna was originally mounted on. Got especially sharp HDTV pictures on the local PBS station, the Christian Broadcasting Network, and FOX Broadcasting.
I moved it to the roof to remove the obstruction of other buildings and located it on the peak of the front dormer.
This required installing a couple splices in the RG-6 cable. (My local TV Repairman counseled applying hard-setting silicone to any such joints in the line while being care to keep all Silicone away from the center lead.)
The RG-6 Lead is firmly attached to the roof with Cable Clips and 100% Silicone Seal.
I've got exceptional-quality HDTV PBS, FOX BROADCASTING, & CBN. Also UHF TV from ABC & RTN "Retro Television Network".
Good Analog TV from NBC. Marginal Analog TV from ABC.
