Terrestrial TV in Winogrady, Poznań: How to Improve Reception on 1st Floor of a Block?

Hello.
I suspect that the problem has already been rolled out, but I'm running out of ideas and motivation .
I would like to use terrestrial television. I live on the 1st floor of a 4-story block in Winogrady, Poznań. The apartment has a socket with TV and R outputs, but after connecting the TV (new, has a built-in tuner) to the TV output, it does not search for any digital channels. I was thinking about buying an indoor antenna for terrestrial television, but they advised against it in the RTV store, due to the problem with signal reception in this part of Poznań (for this reason it is said to be one of the most frequently returned goods). There is already an old satellite antenna on the balcony - it works, after direct connection to the TV, it searches for 25 channels, but only one is saved permanently. Attempting to improve the signal strength (which reaches max. 6-7) by aligning the antenna does not bring any positive results.
My question is - what else can I do to finally enjoy TV in my apartment? Does it make sense to buy an external terrestrial TV antenna and try to align it? Or maybe give it a rest and just order TV from, for example, Cyfrowy Polsat?

Regards.

Winogrady, first floor - no chance.
There may be a socket - but from cable.
What is this tv that you connected the satellite dish to?
The only thing you can try is to catch the illuminated MUX-3 at k. 27 from the tower on Piątkowo (a piece of antenna cable is enough for that) and MUX-8 at k. 9 from the Agricultural University.
Search manually, not automatically.

First, check what I wrote about, rather than CP, it is better to have a cable cable bundled with the Internet.

If you have the "Cable TV" item in the rent, Report the damage to the building administration and they should fix it.

Ordinary Thomson TV - I had an antenna cable (the wind-up one, I think it's professionally called the F connector) with adapters and I took advantage of the fact that there is already a satellite dish on the balcony.

Well, the internet is already from the Cooperative, so maybe the best thing to do with them is something related to television

Can anyone have some tips on manual search? Antenna tuner understand? In the tv I have here, I have to give the frequency (when setting the antenna tuner) and the modulation with "symbol rate" (whatever that means).

Please provide the model of this TV.
Connect the antenna cable and put the other end out of the window.
Go to TV settings - Tuning / installation of channels - Digital - show what you have there, because it's definitely not what you wrote.

Only to the center conductor of the cable you will put out the window. Attach 30-40 cm of a single wire.

There is no such need - I know this area and a nail stuck in the antenna socket would be enough to catch the lighting from the tower on Piątkowo.

Thomson 32HD3301

Attached are screenshots from the TV - when choosing the automatic option -> digital antenna tuner, I have nothing else to set.

Frequency 522000 and 205 500 check if it shows Signal Strength and Quality.

I put an electric cable on both sides of the antenna cable and started the search (my woman means, because I was standing on the balcony like a moron ). What was my surprise when it found channels on both frequencies, and in quite decent quality - from TVP, through TVN, Polsat, to TVP Sport (twenty-some channels in total). So in the cheapest version I have to twist a wire antenna, unless someone knows a better solution . Thank you very much for your help. I think the topic to be closed.

Moment - I mean you have all MUX except 8 - it is strange in this location - you can try some external antenna.

I admit that on one of these frequencies (probably 205 500, I will not cut my hand) it is easier to maintain the signal strength.

In that case - since it works on the first better cable I got - it makes sense.

Which part of Winograd, which balcony is it facing?

Przyjaźni housing estate, block next to Netto. Balcony facing southeast.

Słowiańska, i.e. a balcony towards the Citadel / center - all in all, there are not many obstacles on the way, so there is a chance.

So I will probably try an external antenna. Thanks again for your help

If you already have Internet with WTVK (fiber optic, symmetrical 750 / 750Mb / s link), you can also have cable TV from them. I propose to contact them either for a decoder or for a CI card with a module; it was convenient for me to take the card as I didn't have any extra cables, remotes, etc.
Your TV doesn't have a TVSAT head, so how did you get any channels?
Thanks to the Vinograd cable cable, you will not have to bother with buying antennas, cables, setting it up, etc.
