I live in an old Victorian house with three floors and a basement. My main (and only) TV watching room is on the first floor. I would like to add a TV to one or two bedrooms as well. There is no Antenna on the roof.
I currently have cable TV (Direct TV) in the far western Chicago suburbs. I just have the basic package, and have no interest in all the other programming options. There is a cable TV dish on a lower section of the roof.
A friend of mine nearby has a smaller, single level house and he has a basic antenna mounted on the roof, with a simple cable running through the wall. He pulls in all the channels I would need.
Trying to run a cable from a roof mounted antenna through walls doesn't look like a fun project, nor a simple one.
I am wondering if anyone on this forum knows of better antenna/reception options that I should be looking at?
Thanks!
Vince
