[QUOTE="Yes616, post: 21189, member: 3632"]In theory, if you can get those below zero NM(dB) readings a little above zero on a regular basis, then that will in fact be regularly receivable. If your NM reading on TV Fool is -10NM, if you have an antenna that gives you around 12db gain on that channel, you can be pretty sure it will work well on a regular basis. Of course a low noise amp must be considered if used. I'd like to see what piggie has to say on this. I admit, I know my Dish satellite stuff but I am considering adding a OTA antenna soon. Just as a test, I bought a $40 indoor antenna and have it on a window sill. An RCA model ANT-1450. This shows me stuff that antennaweb says I could never get. I get a few things, but not all of the time. Don't forget to vote then discuss your readings. TV Fool vs. what you really get![/QUOTE]
