We hava cabin up in the Sugarloaf area in Maine and ever since the TV stations swithched to digital transmission I can only get 2 stations,both PBS and they both show the same programming. I used to be able to get 3 or 4 stations. Some of them were snowy at times but at least I see them to watch news, weather forcasts, etc. Now, I've discovered with digital you either get a signal or you don't--there's no in-between. The TV is not digital but I have a converter.
The question I want to ask is, is there some kind of antenna amplifer I could get for a reasonable cost to boost the signal? I tried a signal booster thing which goes between the antenna input and the antenna line but it didn't help. The box said it would increase strength by 10db but I think these were made before the analog to digital switch. The antenna is a normal size mounted on the roof and I really don't want to invest in some huge tower set-up.
