Hi, Thanks for the info. I did not expect what you report. But thinking about it, I realized that the HD channels need to be added at the transmitter to the...
... I never said that it would be otherwise, just that even with a good outdoor antenna signal strength and therefore reception will vary. That is a separate...
... We don't refuse to accept that fact. But it IS a fact that those people who are out in the fringes and who don't erect an ideal outdoor antenna won't get...
... Well it IS good to hear that someone else here is not too thrilled with the new Sutro setup, and that I am not the only one noticing signal variations due...
The boosters often don't have the HD carriers on them. I was in Dublin a couple a months ago and was wondering what happened to some of the HD stations. I...
The "new" Sutro has been a complete disappointment for me here in Morgan Hill. I use to reliably get ABC 7, CBS 5, FOX 2, KOFY 20, KQED 9 and then other...
Hi, That fool does not know about KDFC-FM on Mt. Diablo. I checked Pleasanton and KDFC was on edge. So there is a need. It has been many years since I drove up...
To answer Stephen's questions... The last I heard all stations on Sutro Tower were operating on their permanent antennas at full authorized power except for...
Hi, I am NOT trying to suggest that KDFC is on Sutro, it is not, just that the Weather changes also affect FM at the same time as KBCW 44 (P45) and KQED 9...
... KQED ok here but can't get 45/44 on either set/antennas (always weak even in analog days). 7 still a problem.... sigh. I don't believe KDFC is on Sutro --...
Hi, Sutro is done, the leaves are falling. I am starting to get a picture of what my reception will be this winter. KQED (30) reception has been spotty and...
Thanks for the comment. I think there are two signals stepping on each other .... maybe I need to point some kind of directional antenna at Diablo ... On Wed,...
Hi, perhaps someone can comment on receiving FM from two transmitters on the same frequency. I remember that there is a capture effect perhaps allowing the...
FWIW I have a single antenna on my roof which is probably a Winegard Chromstar 2000 series UHF-VHF-FM. I split the FM signal at the base of the antenna and run...
Thanks for the feedback. My problem seems really weird .... The music on KDFC sounds fine, but the speech is all messed up ... I'm using a "bat" style antenna...
Lots of numbers, one correction: UHF is 470-698 MHz (14-51). ... between channels 4 and 5 - 72-76 MHz - that is used for remote control cars and stuff). ... A...
... TV is divided into 3 chunks: VHF low, VHF high and UHF. VHF low is channels 2-6, and spans 54-88 MHz (there is a 4 MHz gap between channels 4 and 5 - 72-76...
... Digital, in general, has always been a bit of a trade-off. Our senses are analog. In attempting to create any digital representation of the physical world...
The FM band is near TV Channel 6 so my 2-13 VHF antenna in the attic pointed at Sutro (> 30 years) gives me a useful KDFC HD signal. Brisbane looks like parts...
Hi, more: Looking closer at the radio Locator page, there is another transmitter on Mt. Diablo. Much less power, 1000 Watts verses 33,000 but it is much...
Hi, KDFC is not on Sutro. It is across the Golden Gate Bridge near Sausalito. http://www.radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/finder?sr=Y&call=KDFC SHF . ... From: Jim...
Hi I live in Brisbane on the south slope of San Bruno Mountain, with line of sight to Sutro. My FM reception (KDFC 102.1) seems to have gotten much worse since...
It's too bad most set top boxes or HD receivers don't have channel delete built in. It is a good thing they allow multiple scans for different antenna...
