Indoor TV antenna not picking up anything
Solved
Hello everyone, I currently have a recent TV with integrated DTT, and since I don’t have the TV (DTT channels) in my bedroom, I opted for an indoor antenna Gain 55DB. I have made the correct connection (it’s pretty much impossible to get it wrong)
and I’ve tried several things when I search for channels, nothing
So I have some solutions at my disposal
Once everything is correctly powered on and connected
I need to select which source on my TV:
-DTT
OR
-ATV
And then before starting the channel search:
DTT reception mode: Cable or Terrestrial?
Thank you for your help because when I try it finds nothing...

Hello,
Indoor antennas only work nearby and in direct line of sight to a transmitter, without obstacles... which means that in 95% of cases, they don't work... so buy only if you're sure of a possibility of return; if your TV has the option to display a signal strength and quality bar graph, use that on a working channel to perfect the orientation.
Try to see the orientation of the neighbors' rooftop antennas to get inspired.

If you have another TV socket in the house, you can run a coaxial cable to your room using a splitter or an indoor amplifier with two outputs.
