Sept. 29, 2017, 7:49 p.m. W44CR is in Youngstown, and it's typically not decodable here at 50 miles (1.5 kW). If there is slight enhancement, it appears. de Andrew K OH EN91EB
Sept. 29, 2017, 7:46 p.m. I'm watching some small pop-up rain moving through between Akron and Youngstown, and it's causing slight increases in DTV signal strengths. Right now the SNR for WYFX-LD is up 10 to 15% due to the afternoon rain. de Andrew K OH EN91EB

Sept. 29, 2017, midnight Jim, now that I ID'd my WBKI log, I easily see how Roy got WRTV. I just didn't pick up on the cue that my RF-19 could be from that area! de dtvdxer NY FN31

Sept. 28, 2017, 10:46 p.m. (13:01) Trip says Roy's autologger IN FACT did log WRTV 25/6 Indianapolis at 824.39 miles. He says there isn't any other station on RF 25 that could have caused a *mis-read* de Jim-T MO EM37

Sept. 28, 2017, 5:10 p.m. Chris, can you explain how you IDed it without PSIP? I don't understand. Did you get a viewable video? de Andrew K OH EN91EB
Sept. 28, 2017, 5:07 p.m. That's a good log Chris. I have not seen WBKI here, and 19 is a very clear channel too. I don't think I'll ever see anything like that distance here. de Andrew K OH EN91EB

Sept. 28, 2017, 1:48 p.m. This kind of tropo seems to be very sporadic and unstable. I've seen this type of tropo, and I wouldn't be surprised if a signal would land at Roy's autologger over 800 miles away. de Andrew K OH EN91EB
Sept. 28, 2017, 1:44 p.m. Mike... WRIC has been in briefly occasionally for a quite a while. It was just decoding now. Generally, kind of dead here with out the usual tropo clutter. Look on ch 25 for WTVR.. I don't think that channel is blocked for you. de dtvdxer NY FN31
Sept. 28, 2017, 1:37 p.m. Roy's WPSU was about the same time as "WRTV". So could be... but I've seen WPSU many times and never come close to Indiana! de dtvdxer NY FN31
Sept. 28, 2017, 1:27 p.m. Roy also logged WPSU. So it's more likely that WRTV is legit. WPSU is practically a semi-local in Indy :) de Andrew K OH EN91EB

Sept. 28, 2017, 12:52 p.m. Those hills in central PA are typically not good for tropo. It seems that the ducting ended there and re-strengthened once the cold front got further east, but it never went through. de Andrew K OH EN91EB

Sept. 26, 2017, 8:42 p.m. [17:42 (2)] How much is multipath going to degrade a signal on VHF-6 at 7 or 8 miles? I don't buy just multipath as a reason de amfmdxer PA FN20id
Sept. 26, 2017, 8:41 p.m. [17:42] I think the FCC miscalculated coverage for VHF TV or else they calculated on a small local area. de amfmdxer PA FN20id
Sept. 26, 2017, 8:39 p.m. [17:36] You're missing a piece. TV going digital is all digital. FM is hybrid IBOC. That's adding to what has to be transmitted. de amfmdxer PA FN20id
Sept. 26, 2017, 6:53 p.m. Mike and I are heading to Milford, IL site Thursday. As for the internet outage, a technician from Hughes is expected Thu. afternoon to "reset" the satellite dish...??? Not sure what's up with that. de indysteve IN EM69
Sept. 26, 2017, 6:36 p.m. [18:30] Nothing I watch on NBC, except a few sports items, plus I have OTA. Actually, it's the closest full-power station @ 3mi. and totally not a pest. I think I'm so close signal goes over me. Ant. has to be just right or it won't decode. de indysteve IN EM69
Sept. 26, 2017, 6:31 p.m. Andrew, that, plus UHF signals back then were not as good, bad receive tuners w/lots of noise, PLUS, much HIGHER electric bills to feed HUNGRY, older UHF transmitters. I chatted with couple of TV engineers back then about electric bills. de indysteve IN EM69
Sept. 26, 2017, 6:30 p.m. Steve, it sounds like you have a hatred for WTHR, I'm assuming because it's a pesky blowtorch. de Andrew K OH EN91EB
Sept. 26, 2017, 6:28 p.m. BTW, I have AT&T U-verse and haven't missed WTHR at all. One of my least watched anyway. de indysteve IN EM69
Sept. 26, 2017, 6:27 p.m. [18:24] Steve, back then NOBODY wanted UHF because you actually had to manually flip the dial through all the stations to get to the top. So turning the dial all the way up to WOAC 67 took too long, and I rarely watched it. de Andrew K OH EN91EB
Sept. 26, 2017, 6:26 p.m. With so many viewers hooked to a pay service, I don't think a lot of DTVs care a whole lot about expanded coverage via OTA. My local NBC, WTHR, has been off U-verse for 2.5 wks. now. They are holding out for $$$$$$$$$. Screw U-verse viewers. de indysteve IN EM69
Sept. 26, 2017, 6:24 p.m. [17:46] Andrew, LOTS of stations on channels 2-6, plus 7-13. Back then NOBODY wanted UHF!!! Now UHF is the place to be. de indysteve IN EM69
Sept. 26, 2017, 6:09 p.m. UHF max. ERP went from 5000 kW to 1000 kW. I think the FCC messed up with the VHF powers. The VHF DTVs are significantly weaker than what was once allowed on analog. de Andrew K OH EN91EB
Sept. 26, 2017, 6:04 p.m. The fact is that some stations just didn't care about their OTA coverage... WOIO is owned by Raycome, and they're notorious for being low-budget. Other stations used the DTV transition to improve their facilities and increase coverage if possible. But overall, DTV takes less power than analog to replicate the same coverage. The FCC determined what that was. de Andrew K OH EN91EB
Sept. 26, 2017, 5:55 p.m. WDLI also increased their coverage by going from analog to digital. Their viewers likely more than doubled. de Andrew K OH EN91EB
Sept. 26, 2017, 5:54 p.m. I know of some DTVs that are actually stronger now than when they were analog... W16DO stronger than W35AX and WKBN getting out much farther. de Andrew K OH EN91EB
Sept. 26, 2017, 5:52 p.m. Jim, there are likely many examples of stations that have digital coverage much less than their analog. One of my locals that comes to mind is WOIO. And Canadians are much weaker on DTV than they were when once analog. de Andrew K OH EN91EB
Sept. 26, 2017, 5:47 p.m. KREX now has to use a translator network to cover same area their analog used to cover de Jim-T MO EM37
Sept. 26, 2017, 5:46 p.m. When analog KREX was 100 kW on rf 2. You can't tell me that 100 kW analog signal only has a 29 mile contour. de Jim-T MO EM37
Sept. 26, 2017, 5:46 p.m. [16:56] Steve, on the other side of the coin, how many channel 6's are there now, and how many channel 6's were there in 1975? How about channel 2, 3, 4, and 5? de Andrew K OH EN91EB
Sept. 26, 2017, 5:46 p.m. One other curiosity...KREX rf 2 Grand Junction CO dtv signal .8 kW (29.3 mile contour). de Jim-T MO EM37
Sept. 26, 2017, 5:42 p.m. I won't disagree with that....so why do people have more problems getting digital than analog? I know someone will say multipath. Doesn't make sense de Jim-T MO EM37
Sept. 26, 2017, 5:36 p.m. I thought digital signals take less power to go the same distance because they're transmitting less information than analog. de Andrew K OH EN91EB
Sept. 26, 2017, 5:29 p.m. I'll stop here....KOLR 10 now has 26 kW on a 2010' tower, analog they had 316 kW on the same height tower. That's not even apples to apples! de Jim-T MO EM37
Sept. 26, 2017, 5:26 p.m. KDEB was UHF 27... de Jim-T MO EM37
Sept. 26, 2017, 5:23 p.m. And KOZL, which was KDEB (UHF 28) in 1985, had a 1695' tower with 5000 kW! And now DTV UHF is hard pressed to get 1000 kw. That is suppose to be same coverage as analog? de Jim-T MO EM37
Sept. 26, 2017, 5:20 p.m. You can NOT tell me a 40 kw VHF DTV has the same coverage as a 100 kw FM station de Jim-T MO EM37
Sept. 26, 2017, 5:18 p.m. My curiosity, comparing VHF DTV to FM, why are there so few 100 kW DTVs and a plethora of 100 kW FM's??? And FM is NOW a wasteland of RF de Jim-T MO EM37

Sept. 26, 2017, 2:51 p.m. I don't really care when I see 350-mile Milwaukee DX from my portable site in Medina. That's completely normal. Detroit signals from home at only 125 miles is more exciting, because it's less frequent. That's my DX. de Andrew K OH EN91EB
Sept. 26, 2017, 2:47 p.m. Jim, I was excited to see Detroit UHFs decoding here on Saturday with the strongest signals I had ever seen. This is only 125 to 130 miles, which would be considered pathetic from other better locations, but I was still happy since this never happens here. de Andrew K OH EN91EB

Sept. 26, 2017, 2:34 p.m. VHF will cut through trees and get over hills. IF you rob the UHF towers of the signal strength they need, the customer (read *viewer*) gets frustrated with results de Jim-T MO EM37
Sept. 26, 2017, 2:32 p.m. The problem with UHF is the FCC. The *modern day* engineers don't seem to realize that UHF NEEDS power de Jim-T MO EM37
Sept. 26, 2017, 2:26 p.m. UHF is a pain in the a$$. It can't get over hills very well. de Andrew K OH EN91EB
Sept. 26, 2017, 2:25 p.m. Jim, high-VHF DTVs seem to do better here than UHF. VHF is better at penetrating unfavorable terrain. So maybe you'll get some good stuff. It's just very rare, but I'm sure it'll pop up briefly here and there. de Andrew K OH EN91EB

Sept. 26, 2017, 1:58 p.m. Jim, are there any DTVs that you get and Milford doesn't? Or does Milford have everything covered? Sometimes I wonder why I even bother trying to capture tropo to my east when these guys a couple hundred miles west of me can get further east than I can. de Andrew K OH EN91EB
Sept. 26, 2017, 1:53 p.m. The only interesting thing is seeing a sub-decode on 38 a week ago (West Plains MO?) which Milford IL has logged and I haven't yet. I never saw that signal before with other antennas de Jim-T MO EM37

Sept. 20, 2017, 10:06 p.m. [20:02] It's the drought and constant uniform high pressure that's killing tropo. Normal tropo + hurricane tropo would make it above average. de WRH ON FN03

Sept. 18, 2017, 4:37 p.m. With the various configurations I've tried, the best here is the combination of filters and a preamp. The preamp helps bring in the weaker ones like WYFX-LD.
