OTA (Over-the-air) signals refer to high-definition digital television signals that are transmitted over the air from TV stations.Over-the-air TV is a free to view service (no contract whatsoever) where the end user only needs an antenna and a TV to receive and watch their favorite programs. Off-air TV programs are edited per FCC guidelines to insure content is appropriate for all viewers. You can also use an OTA DVR to record live broadcast TV. Overall, OTA TV is an inexpensive way to watch local news, nationally televised sports, and prime-time TV on ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, and more.

Broadcast signals are electromagnetic waves that propagate freely in space. The antenna works as an interface or media converter from these electromagnetic waves to conducted waves. Simply put, the antenna collects the airwaves, either very weak or very strong. In addition, depending on the distance to the television transmitter and other factors such as altitude, trees, hills/mountains and buildings, the signal strength may be reduced. Signals can be amplified at the antenna, as we do, downstream of the coaxial cable antenna, or even, in the case of very strong signals, the antenna may not need an amplifier.

Two frequency bands are in use in the USA for broadcasting: VHF, separated in low and high, and UHF. Low VHF encompasses channels 2 to 6 (frequencies 54-88 MHz), High VHF uses channels 7 to 13 (frequencies 174-216 MHz) and UHF uses channels 14 to 36 (frequencies 470-608 MHz).

No other signals are broadcasted in exactly the same frequency bands, but some are very close. After the FCC mandated realignment or repack of the US broadcast TV spectrum portions of the UHF band (above 600 MHz and 700 MHz) were assigned to MNO's (Mobile Network Operators), for the deployment of 4G and 5G services. This deployment allocated to these mobile service frequencies is directly adjacent to off-air broadcasts signals, which could complicate the reception of only the desired signals. It's possible for signals from neighboring frequency channels to interfere with each other if there is insufficient separation, which is attempted to reduce through a proper spectrum management.

There aren’t other signals broadcasted in the same frequency bands than television signals, but indeed they could indeed impair TV reception. Depending on the reception scenario (the power of off-air and Mobile services, direction of the Broadcast Tower, alignment, etc.), interference can occur that could potentially impair TV reception. Our recommendation is to use always an antenna which is certified "Repack Ready", which means that it operates exclusively in the current frequency bands after the repack, where only off-air signals are licensed by the FCC to broadcasters. In conjunction with a 5G filter, repack ready antenna rejects unwanted signals that could interfere or block normal OTA reception.

Line of sight propagation means that the broadcasting tower is visible to the receiving antenna, this does not mean you can necessarily see the towers, but the antenna is not blocked. It is also referred to as free space receiving conditions. The theory of Electromagnetic propagation states that free space receiving conditions are achieved if the first Fresnel ellipsoid is free of obstacles. As an example, that means that for receiving TV signal at a distance of 60 miles in free space conditions, the height of the path between transmitter and receiver should be around 330 feet above ground. In the practice, the broadcasting antenna is normally placed at a height such to overcome the curvature of the earth, but this does not usually happen with the receiving antenna. Also, obstacles the receiving path may encounter beyond the horizon are not seen by the naked eye and may mistakenly lead to the idea that we have free space receiving conditions. Should this happen, some additional loss has to be added, further reducing the received power. Therefore, the antenna that receives in non line of sight conditions must have height, directivity and gain, plus low noise like the DAT BOSS LR, where LR stands for Long Range.

The selection of the right antenna depends on the frequency and strength of the available stations received in the user location. With these two factors in mind, you can consult our webpage to help you in making the right decision (Find out here). Depending on your location (ZIP code), the webpage provides the signals available at your address: Frequency band, name of the station, virtual channel and direction are provided as well.

Electromagnetic waves suffer from rain fade and heavy cloud cover. Therefore, if you live in an area with frequent rain, and heavy cloud cover including fog it is recommended to use high gain antennas to increase the signal reception margin. Televes exclusive BOSSTech technology adjusts for changes between clear and rain or cloudy weather, but creating more gain in the antenna choice helps insure better signal strength.

Large bodies of water, especially when calm conditions are present, act as large mirrors, where electromagnetic waves are reflected and added to the desired receiving signals. In the old analog world, the reflections provoked what were called "ghost" images, in which there seemed to be a delayed replica of the image in the screen. In digital reception, this effect produces fading and, in some cases, severe impairments (pixilation) and, due to the "all or nothing" nature of the digital signals, finally a black screen comes up. To overcome this, our recommendation for this kind of reception path is to use an antenna with high directivity, that rejects mirroring or reflected signals outside the main lobe to avoid fading.

When the US switched from analog to digital OTA delivery in 2009 many broadcasters also switched the channel which they broadcast on over the air. Because broadcasters still wanted to be recognized by their original broadcast channel number referred to as their branded channel, a system was designed to allow broadcasters to alias the programs received by viewers to appear as their original branded channel number on TV's regardless of the channel they may be actually broadcasting their signals on. These aliased channels appearing on the TV using the broadcaster's original channel number are called virtual channels, and the actual channel they are broadcasting on is called the original or RF channel. In addition, by transitioning to digital, broadcasters gained the ability to broadcast several channels in the same bandwidth previously used for one analog channel. This is why virtual channels contain two numbers separated by a dot or period. The first number is the major channel number which is the same as the broadcaster original branded channel and the second number after the dot is the sub channel. Without virtual channels, viewers would not be able to find their favorite programs.

Cord Cutting is a term used to describe consumers disconnecting from wired subscription TV services such as Cable TV or Satellite TV in favor of free over the air broadcast TV or streaming TV which requires a wired or wireless subscription data service, so OTA is the only true cord cutting non-subscription free TV option currently available. However, most cord cutters choose to combine OTA with one or more streaming services.

ATSC 3.0 also called NexGen TV, is the latest US TV standard that most broadcasters plan to migrate to and holds the promise of revolutionizing OTA TV due to its technical superiority over the legacy ATSC 1.0 standard in use in the US since 2009. Due to ATSC 3.0's use of advanced HEVC encoding and the way content is processed, ATSC 3.0 can deliver legacy SD, HD content plus it can also deliver UHD, 4K or 8K content due to HEVC encoding being much more bandwidth efficient. Even if it was possible to broadcast UHD or 4K in the limited bandwidth of ATSC 1.0 it does not make sense financially to do so.

Electronic interferences (produced by Appliances, tools, etc.) affect mainly indoor antennas with poor shielding that are close to the source of interference. All our outdoor antennas are not affected by these interferences because, apart from the fact that outdoor antennas are usually installed on the rooftop, the element that receives the electromagnetic energy, the antenna dipole, is completely shielded. Some exceptions may occur with poorly insulated LED outdoor lighting. If you experience signal loss or pixilazation when the outdoor LED lights come on, you can confirm by turning them off and then check your TV reception. If your LED lights are causing the issue, contact the manufacture for their input and assistance.

There are fundamentally three specifications the buyer should pay attention to: frequency band(s), directivity and gain. The band or bands where the antenna operates have to be suitable for the broadcasting frequencies of the area. Directivity and gain are usually related to antenna design, larger or longer antennas have more gain and are more directional, receiving signals from greater distances.

At Televes we have a range of antennas to pick up TV stations of Low VHF (channels 2-6), High VHF (channels 7-13) and UHF (channels 14-36). Depending on the stations available in a location and also on the reception signal conditions, we can help you to make the best choice of antenna or antennas. Because there is no best antenna for every location, we offer a suite of antennas designed for the very broad range of possible reception scenarios.

VHF (low, high) stations are broadcasting with lower power, so the choice of an antenna which performs well in this band is critical to receive TV stations in good conditions. We have some good choices for VHF reception, like the Ellipse MIX, the DAT BOSS MIX LR, or the DAT BOSS MIX LR Full band, all equipped with our exclusive BOSS amplification system with TForce technology.

Directivity represents the ability of the antenna to gather most of the received electromagnetic energy from a specific direction. It is usually represented as a lobe pointed at the direction of reception, which is usually name as radiation pattern. The antennas that receive electromagnetic energy within a direction are referred to as "directional antennas".
Read more

The gain of the antenna describes how much signal strength is received by the antenna in the maximum point of its radiation pattern. Typically, gain is associated by antenna size, but in the case of our Yagi style antennas, our triple boom design, developed several years ago, performs equal to or better than the very large Yagi antennas, that in many cases are more than 14 feet in length.
Read more

Beamwidth is the angle of the maximum radiation pattern of the antenna. When pointing the antenna to a specific direction, beamwidth gives an indication of how much azimuth (east to west from the pointing direction) the antenna can pick up TV stations in with maximum gain and thus efficiency.

Omnidirectional comes from the Greek term "omni" (all) and means that the antenna can receive signals in all directions, 360º.

In some particular locations where the broadcasting direction is unknown, users may choose an omnidirectional antenna, driving a van for instance. However, knowing where the signals originate from is necessary. The logical choice for better performance is to use a directional antenna pointed at the broadcasting towers. Please check our website for guidance.
Read more

Simply stated, highly directional antennas are best for longer distances or for rejecting signals outside its beamwidth and have the highest raw gain (gain of just the antenna without amplification). As the size or design of the antenna gets smaller, it provides less gain, but the directivity also decreases and the beamwidth increases. A less directional antenna will receive in a larger east to west window but with less distance. A less directional antenna with more beamwidth could be used if TV broadcast transmitters are located closer in distance in one general direction but spread out and not all clumped together.

Yes, all our antennas are able to receive 4K broadcasting. It is a common misconception that only certain antennas are capable of receiving HDTV. The truth is that HD signals are broadcast on the same VHF and UHF frequencies that have been used since the beginning of broadcast TV. All antennas have the ability to receive HD Broadcast TV, including ATSC 1.0 ATSC 3.0 NexGenTV and 4K if provided by the broadcaster. More important is the quality of the Antenna and its design related to the recent repack of TV broadcast frequencies and its ability to reject 5G interference.
Read more

The best reception is obtained with an outdoor antenna pointed directly at the broadcasting transmitters. The outdoor antenna obtains its maximum performance within its reception main lobe, and depending on its directivity, receives the broadcasting signals and rejects interferences and ghost signals avoiding destructive interference and fading. On the contrary, an indoor antenna has normally low directivity and receives direct signals and also signals delayed or reflected from walls or obstacles at home, which can potentially interfere and destroy the wanted signals.

When considering antenna selection, urban typically indicates being closer to TV transmitters where an indoor or small outdoor antenna could work well, but that is not always the case as some urban areas receive signals from neighboring urban areas. Suburban relates to reception scenarios where the reception location is in a mid-range location from the TV transmitters requiring a mid-range antenna and Fringe would indicate a rural setting where a long range antenna would be recommended.

Yagi antennas are formed by a dipole, the reflectors and one or more directors. The dipole is the element that gather the broadcast electromagnetic energy (works as the sensor element) and has the appropriate dimensions to operate in the frequency band of the antenna. The reflector placed behind the dipole avoids the back reception of signals, reinforcing the frontal reception. The directors which are placed in front of the dipole narrow the beam or reception lobe of the antenna, increasing its gain and directivity. This way, the antenna can receive TV stations at longer distances while, increasing its directivity, blocking inference.

No, an intelligent antenna is one that has the amplifier embedded in the antenna itself. Only at Televes we install preamplifiers in our antennas, so they are considered intelligent antennas. Stand alone preamplifier also called mast amplifier or boosters become the active component of the system when coupled with a passive antenna. In some cases depending on the quality, gain and noise figure of the pre-amplifier, it may not be able to sufficiently amplify weak signals resulting in pixilization or no signal at all. In these cases, it is recommended to install an intelligent antenna, amplifying the signal from the first moment, and, if necessary, also a mast amplifier.

Our antennas have an exclusive feature that other active antennas do not have: BOSSTech® Technology, which provides the appropriate (regulated) signal level no matter the reception scenario. In case of antennas working in VHF and UHF, the regulation of signal level is adjusted separately (VHF, UHF) to take into consideration the different broadcasting conditions of the two bands. Also, the antennas can work in intelligent mode (power on) and in passive mode (power off), thus increasing its dynamic range. Last, but not least, the antennas perform mechanical and electronic filtering to get rid of unwanted interferences broadcasted in the UHF band that could potentially impair TV reception. In simple terms, BOSSTech® is a very sophisticated AGC amplifier on a chip designed by our engineers with 5G filtering that adjusts in real-time to current and changing conditions of broadcast TV signals, providing a more stable signal to the TV.

No. Quoting Shakespeare’s King Lear, Nothing will come of Nothing. By choosing a poor antenna, or an antenna whose frequency operating range is not appropriate for the location receiving scenario, the signals received will probably be impaired, noisy or fuzzy and an amplifier or signal booster will not be able to fix them, as the amplification of noise only produces additional noise. Even though the signal strength may be dramatically increased by an amplifier, this will never ever be able to get rid of the signal noise in the input, so the output signals will always be impaired regardless of the amplifier used.

The antenna range, expressed in miles, denotes how far from the TV transmitter the antenna can receive clear TV stations. Antenna range is more of a marketing term than a technical parameter. It gives some indication of the ability to receive high power transmissions from towers with direct line of sight from the antenna at a defined height above ground (equal to rooftop mounting or higher) and with a certain amount of radiated power. At long distances, the height of the transmitter tower has to be sufficient to overcome the curvature of the Earth. If these conditions are not met, additional losses have to be calculated that reduce this practical range, meaning an antenna rated for 100 miles may have to be de-rated to 70 miles when other factors such as terrain or other obstacles are encountered. Outdoor antennas usually perform better because normally they have higher gain and are installed at or above the rooftop, to meet free space receiving conditions.

We call a fringe area that is about 100 miles or more from the television station. We recommend for this application the DAT BOSS MIX LR, which LR stands for Long Range or high distance, to receive good signal quality in these so-called fringe areas. This antenna outperforms others due to its high directivity, high gain, low noise and TForce Technology to receive weak signals in the most difficult reception conditions.

An intelligent antenna has an integrated built-in amplifier, while a passive antenna does not have an amplifier. An intelligent antenna will work on active mode if it’s connected to power provided from a downstream power supply, receiving power through the coax cable. A passive antenna is not an active component even when connected to a pre-amplifier, it is rather just a passive component of an active system.

Ideally, an indoor antenna works best in homes close to the TV transmitter near a window facing the direction of the transmitters or on an outdoor wall that is not metal construction. In the case of apartment living in a building that does not have a TV installation, an indoor antenna may be an easy option and should be tried since they are relatively inexpensive and easy to setup.

There is no perfect antenna for everything, but depending on the situation, it will be convenient to choose one or the other. The selection of the right antenna depends on the frequency and strength of the available stations received in the user location. With these two factors in mind, you can consult our webpage to help you in making the right decision. In addition to listing the TV stations that are available in your area, our webpage also recommends an antenna (or antennas in case of several directions) which maximizes the number of stations and the quality and strength of the signals received. Finally, it is important to remember that antenna reception depends on many factors (the power and height of the transmitter, the existence of obstacles, the height of the antenna, and so on). If any doubt arises, it is preferable to select an antenna with a longer range to ensure good performance.

The reception in motion of digital signals is usually impaired, as the availability of signals outside main coverage areas of broadcasting towers is low or simply nonexistent, so we presume that the TV reception of digital signals has to be stationary. Having said that, an indoor antenna could work in a RV if the receiving conditions are good (moderate to high signal availability). However, our recommendation is to install an outdoor antenna, such as DINOVA BOSS MIX or CAMPNOVA BOSS antenna. Check our website for information on our antennas suitable for RV or Camping use : Also research TV stations in the area in the areas you plan to visit and also the antenna orientation to achieve best signal quality during your adventures outdoors. Keep in mind that ATSC 3.0 has mobile reception capabilities for future use, so it will be possible in the near future to receive broadcast TV from participating TV stations while on the move.

ABS plastic is noted for its high toughness, impact resistance and resistance to a wide range of temperatures, from very cold to very hot. But not all ABS plastics are created equal. In our case, all Televes antenna parts are made of high grade UV and saline resistant top quality ABS plastic. In this way, our antennas are commercial grade products designed to withstand the elements for decades and are typically used in master antenna systems feeding buildings. They are deployed by the millions all over the world, from scorching hot climates in Africa to bitterly cold in Northern Europe, Canada, and of course, all over the US.

One of the main factors affecting indoor reception are the losses produced by building walls, partition, windows, metallic elements, etc. The ability of electromagnetic waves to pass through materials is called pervasiveness, it is related to losses, and it is highly dependent on the kind of material and its thickness. As a rule of thumb, the higher the pervasiveness the better the signal will reach, and from low to high pervasiveness the scale would be metal, concrete, brick, plasterboard, wood and glass. Also, electromagnetic waves suffer from reflections in indoor walls, and these reflections are superimposed on the wanted signal, causing fading and severe impairments. To improve indoor reception, the receiving antenna should be installed as close to a window as possible, avoiding metallic elements and with clear line of site to the TV transmitters.

In most cases an intelligent antenna such as one of our models with TForce will suffice, although in a number of cases additional amplification may be necessary: You have several antennas pointing to different sites: apart from amplifying, some mast amplifiers can combine the TV services of both "markets" on the same cable. Using the right tool for the job may in this case dictate the use of a SmartKom as the best option. SmartKom is designed to work with any antenna (up to 3 antennas) and is designed to work as a system with our antennas with TForce preamplifiers built-in providing the best possible reception with a simple push of a button. SmartKom cleans up spectrum problems such as multipath or duplicate channels with a balanced, flat output After installing your antenna, you have a black picture on the TV that says no signal. Make sure you have scanned your TV correctly, selecting the "air" or "antenna" option and not "cable". Then, check our website to see if you have an adequate signal at your location, if signal shows weak try adding a pre-amplifier if not using an intelligent antenna. You can also check with a local antenna installer to see if he has installed antennas in your area, confirming that reception is possible You are planning to connect more than two TV's to the antenna: Splitting or dividing the signal is a common application, depending on how long the cable is and how many TVs are to be connected you may not have enough signal without adding an amplifier We offer several solutions to boost the signal, depending on the circumstances a mast amplifier may suffice, or an indoor distribution amplifier may be called for to provide adequate signal to all TV locations.

There is no single reason but check the following possibilities: The preamplifier or amplifier is not receiving power: the power supply may be unplugged, or a splitter may be installed between the amplifier and the power supply, blocking the mains supply The amplifier is overdriving the system (too much signal) There are 5G cell phones or 2-way radio interference The antenna is not properly aimed The amplifier is located too far from the antenna The signal is too weak to recover with an amplifier If you still cannot detect the problem, you can contact an antenna installer or our technical support team to help you.

It is important to keep in mind that the quality of a coaxial cable will have a significant impact on the quality of the signal received on our television. Therefore, after choosing the best antenna for your location, it makes no sense to save money using a poor quality coaxial cable, which could potentially increase signal losses and hence reduce signal strength and potentially pick up unwanted interference, thus impairing the entire reception chain, from antenna to TV set. The cost of high quality coaxial cable and connectors is a minimal and worthwhile investment. We mainly recommend choosing RG-6 cables, the most common for television installations, with a good shielding to reduce signal interference and an adequate length, avoiding overly long deployments, which can reduce signal quality. In addition, we must choose high quality connectors with good shielding to avoid signal losses. Don't forget to seal the connection to the antenna by using a weather boot or other method to keep water out.

The maximum coaxial length used depends on several factors: Signal strength received, number or TV sets to be connected (use of signal splitters) and minimum signal strength as specified by the TV manufacturer. Taking an average signal strength received of -49 dBm (0 dBmV) with a 1:4 splitting, the maximum cable rise would be 200 foot with a certain amount of margin.

A device installed near the TV set which receives the off-air signals and converts them to A/V signals or HDMI to connect to a TV set or monitor without a TV tuner. In the early stages of analog and digital TV simulcasting, converter boxes were used to receive digital TV signals in old analog NTSC TV sets. Today, converter boxes can be used to receive ATSC 3.0 broadcast in TVs without a tuner.

Combining the output of antennas that are pointing at different locations can be tricky, as the same signals could be received by different paths, misaligned, and therefore they would interfere each other destroying themselves. We have designed a device, the SmartKom, which is an easy-to-install professional amplifier. It allows filtering, balance, mix and amplify television signals received from up to a maximum of 3 antennas, increasing the number of channels received in a given location, avoiding the use of mechanical solutions such as rotors and enabling the distribution of all the content received from the antennas in a single input cable to the house.

Yes, you need a converter that receives broadcast signals and sends A/V to be displayed by the computer. Usually this converter is a type of USB dongle with an RF input interface, and depending on the dongle and the manufacturer, it can receive ATSC 2.0 or even ATSC 3.0 broadcasts.

Receiving excessive signal (location very close to the broadcasting tower) can be as bad as having poor signal. In case of excessive signal, the use of a high dynamic range antenna is recommended, like the Ellipse or the DAT BOSS MIX LR, which adjust the output level no matter the reception conditions in order not to overdrive the TVs.

The digital signals, unlike analog signals, are all or nothing signals, so once they start to degrade they pixelize, and then they progress to a black screen. In this case, there are some checks that should be done: Is the antenna pointed in the right direction? Is the antenna preamplifier, if so equipped, plugged into a working household outlet? Was the antenna damaged in a storm or otherwise moved? Have you rescanned your TV recently? TV antennas are relatively simple devices, but even a small change in the antenna location or coax cable network could cause poor reception.

Make sure that the TV is scanning off-air signals and not cable signals. Cable signals are on different channel frequencies than broadcast channels, so it may confuse certain TV's if set to scan cable and not off-air. This video can help you to do a channel scan.

Due to the broadcast TV frequency repack and transition to ATSC 3.0 (NexGen TV) some broadcasters are relocating to shared towers so both ATSC 1.0 legacy programs and the New ATSC 3.0 programs can exist in the limited available bandwidth. If you have noticed that a particular TV channel you usually receive has “gone dark” (you see a black screen instead of regular programming), this doesn’t necessarily mean you no longer receive that channel. This could occur more frequently as some channels begin to move to new frequencies (learn more at www.tvanswers.org). This could simply mean that the location from which that channel was broadcasting has changed, but your reception of the channel shouldn't. Performing a new channel scan on your television or converter box will allow the TV to refresh the broadcasting signal for that channel, and it should show up just as before. As a general rule, it is recommended to scan for channels periodically throughout the year, especially after periods where there has been a shift in the weather. Keep in mind, this is a long term but temporary transition that will result in many benefits for the consumer. If you continue to have reception problems on channels you were able to receive prior to the changes, you may choose to contact the affected local TV station, as they want you to be able to receive their content and may be able to offer additional advice.

Using two or more antennas to receive stations in different markets and directions will not increase signal level in theory, except in cases where you are aiming between markets using a single antenna with the goal of receiving them both. Re-aiming the antenna to one of the markets while adding a second antenna for the other market, both properly aimed, will increase signal levels and improve reception. In some cases, you may receive signal off the side or rear of the antenna, which is ok as long as it does not result in adding interference to the received signals, and you have enough overall gain.

To ensure that a power supply is compatible with your antenna or mast amplifier, there are several factors to consider: Voltage and current compatibility: the power supply must have the same voltage (power) and current as the original PSU Connection type: make sure that the connection mode is suitable, if an antenna cable without connector is used, the power supply must be able to be connected directly via coaxial cable Technical specifications: check the specifications of the original power supply and, if not available, verify the specifications of the antenna or amplifier to confirm the match. You can find this information in the user's manual or on the manufacturer's website In any case, it is always recommended to use the original replacement for various reasons, such as guaranteed compatibility, reliability, safety and technical support.
Read more

No, not all power supplies are the same. It is essential to check the technical data of the power supply and the device (antenna or amplifier) to be powered to ensure compatibility. Using an incompatible power supply may damage your antenna or mast amplifier. Therefore, the power supply unit must have the same technical specifications as the original one: same voltage (power), amperage (current) and connection type. To ensure correct compatibility in a simple and safe way, the most recommended option is to purchase the same original power supply unit. Using a replacement from the same manufacturer guarantees maximum compatibility and reliability.
