Tom no longer does antennas but referred me to another guy. Install with antenna and 4 TVs was 300 something can't recall exactly I want to say 360.00 but not sure

150 mile range seems a little inflated unless it's mounted way up high. Reminds me of when all the bars had super high antennas to bring in blacked out NFL home games.

If you are going to do an antenna and want those channels on all tv's in the house, I recommend installing a Tablo receiver and portable hard drive. The coax cable from the antenna plugs into the Tablo and the Tablo uses a WiFi connection to connect to the Tablo app on either your smart TV or Roku/Firestick. The addition of the portable hard drive allows you to record programs as well. Tablo runs around $90 and portable hard drive was around $50 iirc.

Tom recommended I call Les Allier at Custom Antenna and Satellite; 407-913-9947. Les recently quoted me $325-375 for a Leva HD-8008 antenna mounted on the roof and connected to 1 TV.

Les installed one for me and I now receive 76 clear channels... He's a great guy!

Where are you located? And do you get a clear signal for NBC 2.1?

I’m in Fenney. My antenna is five feet above my roof peak. I get all OTA networks with no problem.

Since WESH switched to UHF they have a very strong signal.

Thanks !

To those who added an outside antenna, did you need to get Village approval?

NBC 2.1 recently moved from VHF to UHF and is now easy to get. Do a rescan on your TV to add it.
