Antenna Troubleshooting Tips and Solutions from Mr Antenna

A reliable TV antenna is essential for uninterrupted entertainment in a world dominated by digital connectivity. However, sometimes the antenna throws a tantrum, causing the screen to become pixelated, or worse, to show no signal at all. Please do not worry.

This article describes common problems, provides easy DIY solutions, and tells you when to contact the antenna experts at Mr Antenna.

Common Antenna Problems and DIY Solutions

No signal or weak signal:

DIY Solution: Locate the antenna. Refer to the online signal map or use a signal meter to ensure the signal is pointing in the correct direction. Sometimes small adjustments can make a big difference.

Pixelated screen or ghosting:

DIY Fix: This is often caused by interference. Make sure there are no obstructions between the antenna and the cell phone base station. Also, try relocating your antenna or using a signal booster to boost your signal.

Intermittent Signal Loss:

DIY Solution: Loose connections are a common cause. Check all cables, connectors, and the antenna itself for signs of wear or damage. A simple tightening or replacement may be sufficient.

Antenna Cable Problems:

DIY Repair: If you suspect a cable problem, inspect the entire length for damage or wear. Replace the broken cable and make sure it is firmly connected to your TV or tuner.
