I warmly welcome
I am new to the forum, but have been following it for a long time and have found answers many times to problems that I tried to somehow fight, but this time due to the presence of many variable factors I decided to open a new thread. To the point :
I have problems with terrestrial TV reception. This applies to: MUX1, MUX2, MUX3. The signal strength remains constantly at the level of 95/100%, while the quality fluctuates in the range (approx.) 50/90%, which causes pixelation and loss of audio and vision.
Equipment owned:
- WIWA hd-90 MEMO decoder
-Directional antenna MITON 1000 gain 15 dB
-CONOTECH NS100 TRISHELD 75 OHM coaxial cable (divided into two sections: on the balcony 2m + in the apartment 2m)
- window passage
Reception from the Chwaszczyno transmitter (distance 12 km), but there are difficulties in the form of: an apartment on the 1st floor, an 11-story block blocking the direction directly to the transmitter, numerous trees in front of my block, and the general topography. It is for this reason that I decided to use this antenna.
I took these two photos within seconds.
The installation was installed in October 2016 and for several months (until February or so) it worked flawlessly, with time the disturbance increased, but I thought it might be the fault of the decoder that was defective. Yesterday I bought a new set-top box and unfortunately still the same.
The antenna is attached to the railing, I can't mount it otherwise because I have a balcony only on this side. At most, I can try to direct it towards Chwaszczyno, but a large block close to mine will rather drown out the entire signal.
What can I do in this situation? When I come back from work, I will try to get the ends of the wire outside and possibly try to adjust the antenna, but yesterday evening it did not bring any improvement. I also disassembled the box with the impedance plate and sprayed some WD40 on the contacts, but it was for nothing.
I noticed that the (passive) antenna was electrocuting. In the decoder, the power is turned off, there is no amplifier. Why is this happening?
I am asking for advice what I can do.
Below are pictures of the installation:
