Cutting the cable, lets talk options and media setups

I hate my apartment... :rant:
LOL!
There are a few things you can try.
Have you tried moving the antenna around to find a better spot?
I had to do this several times until I got a clear reception. I'll tell you, I had to put it up high (above my living room window) to get the best reception. Also, if you find a better spot, make sure you do another channel search on your t.v. It will re-program in all of the new channels you may have missed before.

Another thing, you can buy an amplifier for the Mohu antenna. I've read were this solves a lot of people's reception problems.
They run about $20
