[QUOTE="Rickideemus, post: 100498, member: 12677"]I'm sorry, but your writing is virtually incoherent to me. How can you possibly know the problem isn't moisture? You would have to personally blow dry every connection and the inside of every inch of coax. It wouldn't be related to the timing of rainstorms. You say you did a "signal strength." Where? If you did it at the antenna when you were experiencing the problem, that proves the problem is with the connections between antenna and TV. If you don't believe it, hook a TV directly to the antenna with short, new RG-6 cable, and see if it doesn't come in just fine. If you did the "signal strength" from the TV menu, and you did it when you were experiencing the problem, that shows there's a problem with the TV. (TV's menu says good signal, and you get nothin = probably time for a new TV.) If you really think the converter was immune to the problem, connect it up to the HDTV just for a test. If that fixes it, again you have a bad TV. Hard to see how the TV could cause temp sensitivity, though. You don't have it sitting outside, do you? Can't go any further into your question, cause I honestly can't read it. Maybe some periods would help at the ends of sentences ... ? Rick[/QUOTE]
