Is this a , house , condo , apt. , mobile home , motor home , or etc.?? Please make and post a radar plot with the antenna height at 20 feet. The default antenna height is 10 feet. Are there large trees close to you reception location to the south east?? Are there large buildings that could block reception to the south east??

it is a house...side split...house faces east ...would put up on roof or a tower. I have a clear line of sight to the south west and the south east.
I did try the radar plot and it would not show, i will try again.

many thanks

tvfool in the , current plus pending applications included , is showing a mix of digital and analog stations all around the compass. A antenna with a rotor will receive them. A antenna with a rotor works ok with one tv connected however if more then one tv is connected disagreements will happen about where the antenna is pointed. A antenna with a rotor can be connected to each tv. How many tv's are/will be connected??

[jester5163]

best result would be 2 tvs.

it is a house.

many thanks

I recommend a ChannelMaster 3018 antenna and AntennasDirect CPA-19 preamp and a ChannelMaster 9521A rotor for each tv. http://www.saveandreplay.com , http://www.trentondistributors.com. As shown in tvfool 'current and pending applications included' for analog and digital stations. Many USA digital stations are to the south east. One digital Canada station is to the west and the other Canada stations are analog and are scattered around the compass. The analog to digital transition is still in progress in Canada and analog stations can convert to digital at any time. The Canada stations can also move to a different location. Here is information about the analog to digital transition in Canada , http://www.user.dccnet.com/jonleblanc?Canada_TV_stations , http://www.tvtechnology.com/article/117022 , http://www.tvtechnology.com/article/105462 , http://www.digitalhome.ca , http://www.friends.ca , http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/home-accueil.htm , http://www.canada.com/entertainment/television/index.html , Here is what is digital television around the world , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_television_transition
