    Yeah, the big thing is to keep the coax cable away from other electronics as much as you can. I proved that with having the coax go by my PC laptop, and soon as I turned on the laptop, the stations shut off. We dont have that many stations in the Chicago area. Several are duplicates of channels.

    Yeah, interesting. I would probably get a stronger signal if I did that, but at this point, I already have all of the network and local channels that I want. I'd probably get more foreign language channels that I don't need.

    Because of the many rave reviews of the Tablo Quad I purchased one directly from the manufacturer. I was able to set it up successfully but after that it was a total dud. I would have to constantly power cycle to allow my network to find it. I contacted customer service for help and I enabled remote for them to troubleshoot and they couldn't connect either. After 5 days of going back and forth with CS I finally got fed up and requested a refund and I had to pay for the return shipping on a defective product.

    You'll get the most channels if you get an outdoor antenna and have it professionally mounted on your roof or attic. In my testing of indoor antennas, I actually found the Mohu Leaf to perform quite well compared to the others: www.disablemycable.com/mohu-leaf/. Often people blame the antenna when fact they have weak TV signals and require an outdoor antenna. - Brian

    So the 150 Channels has everything to do with your Location and where you placed your Antenna but The Tablo is just a DVR that also accepts Antenna Input but it doesn’t actually boost or help you get more channels right??? 🤔

I think I'm going to. order one and give it a shot unless you tell me the Tablo is better. I don't want wires going all over and I have fiber optic internet so I'm hoping the signal will be strong.

    @@prenticelennon3087 Please let me know how the AirTV works for you. I've never tried it but I do know the Tablo is more popular. One concern I'd have about AirTV is that it could be discontinued (in light of Amazon discontinuing their Fire TV Recast DVR due to less interest than expected). I feel like Tablo will be around for a while but I'm not sure about AirTV. Case in point, the Tablo Facebook page has constant activity and I receive their mailing list regularly. The AirTV FB page hasn't been updated since 2019. Same with their Twitter page. That might not mean anything but it does make me wonder.
