OTA issue in Snohomish, WA (98290)

[No Doubt]

Hi people,
I have installed a Channelmaster 3018 antenna with new RG-6 coax, outside at approx 30ft. I am getting all my locals, except KING-5, which is digital-48. I talked to the enginnering department & found out their transmitter site is 1000 ft from Komo-4 & Kiro-7. He also informed me they share the same tower with Kong-16, which is coming in with 50% signal strength. I manually enter both 5 & 48 & get the weak signal message. I am wanting to get your input on this situation if possible.
Thanks in advance,
No Doubt

No Doubt, Find your DMA antenna farm location do a channel scan, next find the lowest station signal output from that antenna farm set your antenna to that lower powered station for the highest signal. your done. enjoy!

If you want more accurate multiple DMAs its better to get an antenna rotor.

The tower that shares Kong-16 & King-5 are peaked out for signal strength. Will a amp help here?

One possibility is intermod between channel 33 and 90.7 FM. If true, an FM trap may fix it.
