So question: When watching the OTA programing it will break up like sat tv will do during cloud cover or heavy rain. I did not think OTA antennas were sensitive to weather.
Any answers?? [emoji848][emoji1634]

Yes and no. Clouds won't affect it like it does satellites. But hazy weather or rain and even the leaves on the trees can affect it if you are on the fringes. And reflections (multipath) of things like airplanes. Remember the ghosting? Well, now when that happens it just pixellates or stops working.
Having said that, I'm sitting in a campground in NC watching the Kentucky derby OTA with no issues, was too lazy to hook up their cable. Working fine.
