RECEPTION PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS
MANY THINGS AFFECT RECEPTION!
Forests, deserts, and hills / mountains tend to greatly reduce
reception. Metal roofs on homes or buildings may limit
reception indoors for transmissions and alerts. Reception
in cities may be reduced due to steel and concrete, while
higher elevations will enhance the signal. Reception can
vary from room to room. Moving even a few feet can
enhance signal reception.
