Message: [QUOTE="Sparky111, post: 5888, member: 1130"]I put my converter box on top of my tv. I tried many different tv antennas and was unable to get a good signal, then I put my converter box closer to my antenna and got a much better signal.I think the convert box takes the signal and amplifies it (along with converting the signal) so the shorter the length of the lead-in wire from the antenna the better the signal.I was able to run three TV's using only one converter box along with three remote control extenders I made.  I can get all VHF channels and live in Los Angeles.I had used 300 ohm twin-lead.  I don't know if it would be the same for 75 ohm coax.[/QUOTE]
