    OTA Frustration

    I'm going to move the antenna to the roof (from the attic) to see if that helps. I really don't want to have to buy a new antenna if I don't have to. As far as the cabling goes, it goes straight from the balun on the antenna to the tuner on the TV (about 150' of RG6 cable).

    I sent a request to SolidSignal.com as well to see what they have to say.....

    OTA Frustration

    Ok. I've replaced the suspect end ( the center wire was bent ) and eliminated the preamp from the equation. So far I can still only pick up 10.1 and 47.1. I'll see if I can get ahold of 91-XG or something like it to see if my fortunes change.

    So an antenna like the 91-XG with a channel listing (High gain across entire UHF band (UHF channels 14-69)) Should be able to pick up down to 3.1 and 6.1? That is where I guess I'm confused with the antenna selections......

    I chose this antenna because I was trying to pick up channel 3, 6, 8 which are a distance away. my town sits in a valley. I'm a noob. :)

    OTA Frustration

    The antenna is in the attic due to higher winds at my location. I did find one end that is suspect that I'll need to replace this evening (need to buy a tool to replace with). I'm also intending to replace the pole that I've mounted to to a PVC pipe instead of the metal pole that I used.

    I've attempted the tuner in my LG flat screen and a Hauppage HVR-1600. I'll go over my cabling and see what I can come up with.

    OTA Frustration

    I've tried removing the preamp and I then get no signals..... I've also tried pointing the antenna in different directions and the only place I receive signals is pointing north.

    OTA Frustration

    I've been struggling with picking up anything but 10.1 and 47.1 in my location. I have a CM-3020 Long Range with a CM-7777 Preamp. Here is an image of the stations I should be receiving. I'm stumped!
