You are correct. I removed the amp from my setup and tested it at his location. The amp is currently back on my setup and is working fine.

Thank you for the reply. I only had it up about 6-7 feet on the mast above the roof when testing the reception. I will have to try to raise it higher to see if this was causing the reflection. There are also some small trees about 30 yards away that could be blocking the signals. I’m still...

The metal roof might be the cause. I noticed if I took the antenna off the roof and walked away from the house with no amplifier I began to receive more channels. Is running coax 150-200 feet too far to run with a pre amp? I’ve read there is dB loss for every 10 ft but I’m thinking I need to...

Agreed that you cannot amplify a non existing signal however when I take the amplifier off at his location I can receive channels which is odd...

The antenna when mounted on the pitch of the roof is easily 35- 40 feet from the ground so that is accurate. Using the tvfool map I had the pin set to the exact location. The roof is metal if that makes a difference? but it is mounted outside. The amp is working fine at my location as I’m...

I tried my exact setup (91XG with a 50ft rg6 Coax run into a fire recast) and also a Clearstream 2V antenna. Oddly the 91xg picks up 0 channels from his house vs the smaller Clearstream 2. I’ve contemplated trying a channel master 4228 hd as a majority of the channels are UHF. At my house which...

Hello, I am trying to help my brother set up a new antenna at his house which is about 5 miles away from me. I do understand that just moving down the street can cause a difference in signals etc. Both of our tvfool reports are not very good. However I am only trying to get the ABC, CBS, and...

I’m probably 50+ miles east of the Pittsburgh towers and I’m picking all of those channels up with a Clearstream 2 (the model that receives vhf signals) and a channel master 7777hd adjustable gain amp. I tried the cm 7777 and it overloaded my signal, the cm 7778 worked but was not enough (might...

Thank you everyone for responding and you are very correct Jim, I am down in a valley which is probably making it so tough to get any signal. On another note, I do get WTAE which isn't very close and a few other stations. I guess Ill be happy I have those ones for now!

Hello, I am currently looking for antenna and amplifier suggestions to get Pittsburgh stations (kdka, wpxi) that are 50-55 miles away. I will be doing an attic mount as I do not have roof access. I’m considering getting a Winegard hd8200 or 91XG and thought about pairing it with a channel...
