I was thinking about using the existing mast and wiring from the old loran for installing an OTA antenna.
Has anyone done this successfully?
Any recommendations on antennas?
The tv in the master is about 2’ above the waterline. The mast is about 28’ when raised. We’re in the Tampa Bay Area and can pull stations from Tampa, St. Petersburg and Sarasota, about 40 channels. That will make the Admiral happy.
Doing the wire run isn’t to bad but may need to do in 3 sections. Not sure if that effects the signal quality adding the extra connections.
I guess we will find out.
HA! omnidirectional. For years I keep calling them unidirectional. As many as I have put up on homes, you'd think I would have the terminology down pat.Also each of the connections is going to be a point of potential corrosion. If possible do a single run. Get an Omni directional had antenna.
