Are radio and local broadcast TV signals and broadband WiFi non drop out signals distorted or weakened with metal roofs? Will I need additional signal amplifier for whole house WIFI usage Up stairs and down stairs? Signal Dropouts will be an issue.

For signals originating outside of the structure, though, a metal roof can weaken already weak signals to the point of where it is an issue. I have not seen that happen frequently but it can occur.

No experience with over the air TV signals as mine all come in via cable.
