Attic
TV Antennas
For best performance, we typically recommend the placement of your TV antenna at the highest point possible and with a clear line of site to the transmitting towers. Of course, many people still choose to install their TV antenna in the attic for aesthetic reasons or to comply with neighborhood guidelines. Keep in mind that one can typically lose up to 40-50% of the signal's strength from an attic installation due to the loss from roofing materials.
Since signals will be weakened
by just about any roofing material, utilizing a higher
gain antenna is typically the first step in overcoming
signal loss. The effective range of most antennas
is lowered by 10-15 miles with an attic installation,
so you may consider getting a more powerful antenna
than you would typically need with an outdoor antenna.
It is important to note that you have the legal right
to erect an antenna on property you either own or
control. Your rights regarding antenna installations
on your property are explained in more detail on
the FCC's
web site.
With proper installation and the right
antenna you can overcome some of this loss and be successful.
