[TXZIG]

Hello, This is my first time posting here...

Here is my TV Fool Results

http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=29&q=id%3dd24375099dbdb4

I currently have a homemade attic antenna
It is an 8 bay bow-tie antenna... <- Youtube antenna - i cant remember exactly where i got the plans from. I currently have trouble getting channel 17. 19 and 25 come in solid and 41 is spotty

I am looking to pick up the channels that are at 150 deg and i am thinking about buying the RCA mini Yagi and mounting it on my roof.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm not sure what antennas would be good for picking up the channels in my area.

Thanks
Mark

Your report suggests that the RCA ANT-751R would do quite well when mounted outside clear of obstructions such as trees and nearby strutures (including your own). Attics can be accetable receiving sites in some cases, in others, completely unworkable.

Use a Real and Actual magnetic compass to aim antenna , do not trust a , cell phone , tablet and etc. compass.

To discover the best reception , most Digital Tv's have a Signal Strength Meter and some Digital Tv's also have a Signal Strength Meter.

As always , the antenna aim direction and the antenna location can be adjusted for the best reception.

The Signal Strengths Are Strong.

A antenna system amplifier is not required for reception of the Victoria area Tv stations to the South East and the 1 Tv transmitter to the North.

Here are some above the roof antenna mounts.
