I just recently “cut the cord” and went OTA only with some assistance from Netflix. To my disappointment, I have been unable to get a consistent signal from KFOR. I’ve tried the Mohu antenna, the Terk amplified antenna, and the Mohu amplified antenna and I will go from a signal strength in the 90s (measured by my tivo box) to mysteriously dropping into the 40s and worse while the screen pixelates and recovers. I am in NWOKC (73112) and I mentioned this to a friend who lives in SWOKC and he has the same issue. Is this common or should I look at an outdoor antenna? NBC is the station that has most of the shows I watch OTA.

Thanks for the replies.

I have an outdoor antenna and have been getting KFOR in Stillwater for years without too many issues. In fact, I prefer their weather coverage over the other local stations. Because I’m in Stillwater, I don’t have a lot of experience with indoor antennas, but you’d want to make sure that it handles UHF signals well as all the channels except KOCO Channel 5 and KETA channel 13 are VHF.

I live in Tecumseh and I called the channel the week of May 29th to let them know that my signal had become fragmented or non existent over night and it still is pretty much unwatchable. The show we like are on this channel and it is very frustrating. Let another message today with an engineer but haven’t received a return call. Something is definitely wrong.
