“I have a metal roof and want to mount the antenna in the attic. The broadcast towers are in a direct line only 26 miles away. Will I be able to pick up a good signal or will the metal roof stop all signals?”

• For the most part, a metal roof will act like a Faraday Cage and keep most if not all RF signal from hitting an antenna that is under the roof. Feel free to contact our Technical Support team for more support. You can reach them either on the phone @ 877-825-5572 or online with our Live Chat option. Thanks for your time!

• If the signal can go thru the wall and not the roof you should get a signal. Try it if not mount it on the outside.

• Metal roof will severely weaken/block the signal.
