As soon as you said that I knew Vizio. This is why I hate Vizio. The Vizio subreddit exploded when they put that update out. And unlike LG, you can’t roll the update back.
Antenna Tv is fantastic on an LG. They totally kept the old school feeling.

A booster amplifier in series with your antenna may help. First, research the frequency of the channel you're trying to receive and then search for an amplifier that will boost the gain at that frequency.
