My apologies for not stating it clearly - it is DVB-T signal,
terrestrial, not satellite.

Thanks, Kirk and Gene!
The antenna is ~2m long, its orientation is "the same as previous
antennas". I guess I might try another session of catching better
signal, once it will get little warmer. Now the sun is really warm,
but wind is nasty cold already on ground, so I do not want to know,
what is it on the roof (although it is only 3-4 m higher:) ).

Yes, I mostly watch hockey (there is one Latvian team playing in KHL),
but other than that - not really much. And now the KHL season is
over...
For me the internet is main source of news and information etc.

Thank You, Roger, for the explanation! I finally understood, what do
those dB mean.
Ok, seems that there are not much options, but to think, where and how
to replace the antenna. The thing is that there is a hill with trees
on one side of the house. It is very nice, because to large extent it
protects the house from western winds (statistically wind from west is
most common in LV, as it blows from sea/ocean to continental inlands),
but it is exactly on the transmitter - house roof path. The remaining
3 sides of the yard are open in terms of hills, trees etc.
