Hi all,

First post :wave: .  Just set-up basement home theater this past spring. Now starting to fine tune for football season.  Ran a RCA Ant711 antenna earlier this week.  Fell off my chair was able to get all digital locals.  Fox is out right now though.  My question is I ran quite a bit of cable like maybe 50'.  Are there any issues with long cable runs.  Ant is in attic just laying there have to figure out exactly where to mount.

50' should be fine.  At 100' give or take you might consider a preamp.
