Believe it or not, that sheet was not included in the box and it doesn't show that particular page in any of the sheets that DID come with it lol. Oh well, thanks much for the link!

Please forgive my stupid question.....the Coax part/connector with the 2 lead wires and a boot....where do I hook that onto the antenna? I figured I can probably just place it about anywhere as long as it is secure and get reception, but I like to be sure even if it makes me look dumb lol...

Awesome informationn to have, thanks! I ordered the CM4228 from Warren Electronics as well and hope to have it next week. Thanks to all for the information!

Heya Texasbrit...Wow, ok good to know! I just called the Fry's nearest me and they too did not have it in stock. I guess I will order online and will grab the tripod too, as that is kinda the setup I initially wanted. I will take this other hulking antenna back to Ratshack. Thanks all!

Any local retailers in Dallas/Mesquite area carry the CM4228?

I haven't tried any other antennae and only took the VU90XR out of the box. Rick0725, what do you mean by "only a channel master cm4228 uhf antenna is suggested there". You mean in the attic? or in my zip of 75126? I haven't tried the Silver Sensor, but was hoping to toss one into the attic...

Thanks much for the information gentleman! I think I will take this big-ass thing back and get something else in hopes it'll work. I will look into some of the other antennae recommendations on this site as well before I pick the radio shack one. Thanks again!

Geesh, I don't even know how this big-ass antennae is going to fit in my attic....would a smaller one NOT work just as good? Frustrated... Here is the info off of antennaeweb: DTV Antenna Type Call Sign Channel Network City State Live Date Compass Orientation Miles From Frequency Assignment...

I have DTV HD box(H20) in living room and want to get local HD channels. I purchased the VU-90XR from Radio Shack(at rep's insistence) and the rep told me to place in my attic. My zip code is 75126. I did the cable drop with RG6(one end ready to plug into HD box and other end waiting for me...

Well, just wanted to give an update on this issue. DISH wasn't budging on the installation, so I expected my wife to call and set everything up as a new customer.....well, that didn't happen lol. She called the "other" company and ordered the installation for January 10th. She wanted to...

I'm going to call them this weekend and see if I can ge that. If not, I guess the wife will be calling afterwards lol.

I appreciate the insight. Thanks all.

I can appreciate the fact that any business entity wants to bring in new business, but there seems to be a lack of focus on retaining business. I'm sure that my perspective is skewed since I am not doing a DISH Happy Dance at the moment...I guess I'd be happy with "Middle" ground instead of New...

I have had DISH for over 3 years and have been happy with it. I just got married and the wife wants DISH in 2 other rooms(and I wouldn't mind having HD and/or DVR either). New customers can get DISH in 4 rooms, plus DVR(and applicable fees)with free installation, but why can't I? Someone...
