That worked when TV was analog and they were running megawatt transmitters. It doesn't do so well with the low power digital stations unless you are close to the transmitters.
I know, I am lucky enough to be close.
Same here; for the longest time I used a 6in piece of unshielded braided wire in the coax connector and pulled most of the local HD channels.
