Whats the difference? 7777 vs 3041DSB?

I'm going to Lowe's today and purchasing a Channelmaster 3020 Deep Fringe antenna with a Channelmaster 3041DSB Amp & a remote rotator assembly. Gonna give it a shot in the attic. If that doesn't work, it'll go outside. Gotta try the attic thing first.

Do you get 33/40 with your setup, ROLLTIDE? Just wondering...

LOL!!! You're right, no 33/40... Which sucks, no MNF!!! Oh well, we'll see what happens!

Guys, stuck a Radio Shack indoor "Amplified Digital HDTV" antenna (26db gain, glorified rabbit ears) through a diplexer in the attic aimed at the tower 40 miles away... Got the CBS & NBC affiliates loud and clear. Signal strengths in the high 70s to high 80s. Now I want MORE!!!!! Roll...

Thanks RollTide! So do you think I'm wasting my time in the attic? I don't want to waste my time. I would like to give it a try, if it's feasable. Also, can you use a diplexer to run the antenna signal over the same coax to keep from having a new run in the wall?

Thanks Sean Mota! Does the DVI help the SDTV signal at all? I imagine what you see is what you get, but I thought maybe the DVI input through the 811 might be a better picture. Any other pointers for better picture would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks, thought so... BUMMER!

A couple questions from a newby with little clue with when it comes to the whole HDTV revolution. At this time I have a PVR 501 connected to my 60" Grand Wega with a S-Video connection. SDTV signals are not very good, especially with wide zoom, etc. I have ordered a 811 receiver that will be...
