TV Channels: Setting up Antenna for Mux3 Reception - Basic Channels TVP1, TVP2, Polsat, Mux8

Hello, the problem is that I have a regular antenna on the roof that receives channel 8, i.e. mux8, where there are some tv wp channels, new, metro and 4 test channels, and my point is to receive at least the basic tv channels, i.e. tvp1, tvp2, Polsat, from what I read on the net, you need to receive mux3, before all the confusion with digitization everything was ok, on the old antenna, the so-called with a plate, where it was powered from the power supply at the TV. Currently, I have replaced the coaxial cable with a new one, which was connected to the old analog aluminum antenna lying on the roof, what do you need to set up or do to receive mux3 or at least tvp1, 2, Polsat?

First of all, place the antenna in the right direction (towards the transmitter). Lying down is unlikely to pick up. Check if 12V reaches the plate in the antenna and, just in case, replace the board (amplifier). To receive digital channels, you need the same antenna as for analog. It's been almost 5 years since the confusion. Haven't you watched TV during that time?

Lying old aluminum antenna on the roof picks up mux8. The mesh antenna (the one with the plate is disconnected from the concentrator) from what I remember, it received many channels, and now the effect is the same as with the old one, so why keep the size large. I even took a new indoor antenna from the store, which also caught the mux8, of course it went to the complaint because it did not live up to what was expected, and I am interested in mux3. It may be necessary to check the plate.
I haven't watched TV for a long time, but at home one person from time to time tells me that he wants to watch teleexpress, and by the way I would also like to watch a movie or just a match on TV from time to time.

You need to mount the same antenna as the neighbors have and similarly attached. If you have a power supply, there should be an amplifier in the antenna box. I don't think you live in the desert
And of course, run an automatic search for digital channels.

You would be surprised how much DVB-T desert there is - it is enough to live next to the forest.
Running an auto scan is the worst thing you can do.

Without programming, even if the antenna was great for all MUXs, the screen will be dark. Of course, it's best to program on a certain antenna.

Added after 18 [minutes]:

If Polsat will be there will be the rest of this MUX2, i.e. TVN, TV4, TV Puls, Puls 2, TVN 7, TV 6 and Super Polsat, that is all or nothing from MUX 2
If there is TVP 1 HD, then also TVP 2 HD, TVP Info HD, TVP Kultura, TVP Historia TVP Sport, that is all or nothing from MUX 3.
All or nothing from MUX 1 is TVP ABC, Eska TV, Polo TV, TTV, ATM. Entertainment TV Trwam, Stopklatka TV and Fokus TV.
MUX 8 is all or nothing, i.e. Nova TV, Zoom TV, Metro and WP, and reserve ones.
It cannot be that there is a program in the given MUX and there are no others.

You have the mux-3 transmitter (TVP channels) in Sandomierz, at ul. Mokoszyńska . Using the amplifier near the transmitter may result in no reception.

What is this antenna?

The closest transmitter for all muxs (including mux-2) is St. Cross.

This Sandomierz is not a point on the map. What is the exact location of the installation (address, coordinates) and how many receivers will be connected?
This is the basic information when choosing the right equipment.

I just add that depending on the part of Sandomierz - regardless of the "lighting" MUX3 doing more harm than good - you receive signals from three transmitters: Święty Krzyż - this is for the left-bank part, but without the area on the Vistula itself - but the entire area of the Vistula slope and the whole Zarzekowice and Nadbrzezie are within the range of Leżajsk and Sucha Góra near Krosno. MUX1 and MUX2 from the transmitter on the Holy Cross are basically non-pick up there.
And how far do you live from Mokoszyńska?

I think that the neighbor's antenna is not to be suggested, because it may have a neighbor coax connected to the decoder, also even an ordinary dipole, then it would be enough maybe.

As for the location of the transmitters, I know that it is best to direct to St. Cross, but closer to the chimney in Machów / Tarnobrzeg, but I only catch Mux8 from the antenna.
Ah, that old aluminum antenna named "Orbit 2" [Russian letters] works fine, it just grabs the entire Mux8. I think that I will attach this earlier mesh antenna with a plate [some small electronics] where the power supply at home and the antenna cable for the TV, together with the aluminum cable, are attached to the cable, and the direction to St. The cross, maybe it will be something of this. Possibly the circuit board [electronics] is damaged or too weak.

Tarnobrzeg does not suit mux-2 .

Is it such antenna? According to technical data is intended for collection k. 21-41. So, from Tarnobrzeg, you should theoretically pick up the mux-3 (sheet 26).

The grid should theoretically receive k. 21-69, orbit k. 21-41. So why these two antennas for the same transmitter?

Where did you get these messages from? She picks it up, as already, k. 6-69.
The author of the topic writes as if he knew everything and I don't know why he founded this topic?
He doesn't check hints and argues with them!

@_kli_: yes exactly like that Of course I wouldn't point two antennas at the same transmitter.
On the aluminum one I catch mux8 in every direction, I don't understand why I don't catch other muxs. That's why I want to attach one antenna to the other and both to one tv.

@LeDy: if I didn't check, I wouldn't reply and quote earlier, I just want to solve the problem that there would be programs that I had before this whole revolution with these broadcasting standards.

Not always and not everywhere. Saint Cross gives mux-8 vertically, and I used the word "theoretically". In practice, it may or may not.

Since you receive band III on the band IV antenna, the signal must be very strong. So the more you should catch the mux-8 from Tarnobrzeg on the net and then you don't have to sum the antennas.
