ADVERTS 1
Trouble is the Towers that I want are 50 miles away and they are all VHF. Most of that DMA is all VHF High.
Most of the time I get there PBS, CBS, and ABC just file with the attic ant. To get it all the time, like others I really need an outdoor ANT that can be hidden. There is also the Wife and neighbor factor, they really did not like the dish. Hate to add an ANT that sticks out.
Any suggestions.

Seriously though there are UHF flat panel designs out there that have the antenna in a plastic box which could be painted the color of your house and no one would question it."We need more power Scotty"

Proud Staff Memberi had one of those and besides the fact it wasn't strong enough i have a few vhf channels it would never pick up. i got the winegard hd 1080 and attached it to a 40 inch long mast to get it as high as possible if needed. still making adjustments Originally Posted by Bob2011 Build a radome over it and tell them it's a house decoration
