Is this a , warehouse , shop , house , condo , apt. , mobile home , motor home , etc. . How many Tv's will be connected?? Does the building have any upper floors?? Does the building have any metal on the inside or outside of the walls?? Does the building have a metal roof?? Are the walls made of poured concrete??

I'd consider a Winegard HD 7696P with a moderate gain preamp, either the HDP-269 or AP 8700. I'd aim it at 37 degrees. You'd get a full compliment of networks without a rotor.

Brick single story house with asphalt shingles. I will mount the antenna on the roof and hookup to 2 TV's

The Wineguard 7696p looks good what do you think of the xg91

Thanks

The 91 XG is a fine UHF only antenna that is not right for you. KOLN and KUON are on VHF frequencies.

If you want to pick up the LPTV stations at 340 degrees you could use a smaller cheaper DB-2 UHF only antenna. I did not investigate if all the networks have LPTV stations in that direction.

I googled , K18CD 18 , KWAZ-LP 35 , K27GX 26 and these stations are said to be not transmitting. . KFLX-TV 51 is said to be transmitting as a FOX affiliate. You have FOX KPTM-DT UHF 43 at 45 degree magnetic compass. I also recommend a Winegard HD7696P antenna with a HDP-269 preamp. point the antenna at about 37 degree magnetic compass. Here is how to point Tv antennas , http://www.kyes.com/antenna/pointing/pointing.html
