Is there such a thing as an antenna booster?
Indoor TV Antenna Booster. This type of booster is normally installed close to a TV, although a better output can often be achieved if it is installed closer to the aerial. Most indoor TV antenna boosters have 2 outputs that can be used to improve 2 TV’s signal quality.

Do antenna boosters work?
TV aerial amplifiers and signal boosters do work. They can help overcome signal losses because of cable resistance and because of the splitting of signals to multiple TV’s. They won’t however miraculously convert a poor or weak TV signal, into a good reliable signal.
Do you leave antenna power on or off for set top box?
If you are using basic aerial leave antenna power off. For antenna with downconverter or integrated booster turn antenna power on. Basic aerial is probably not suitable for digital TV signal.

What to do if your antenna is losing signal?
The signal could be lost in the coaxial cable distribution. It is important to check regularly for corrosion, loose cable fittings, or if a cable has been compromised.

How does a viewtv antenna boost TV reception?
The ViewTV antenna is unidirectional and is based on the famous Yagi-Uda design, which features an elongated axis with protruding dipole elements for maximizing reception within a narrow receiving beam focus. Thus, its antenna gain means it probably won’t need extra amplifier gain to boost the received TV signal.
