Here's my radar scan:

Now, I had an old RCA antenna about 4' long and I was receiving most all the channels in green (digital ones), but that's all. And on windy days we would loose the picture on weak channels and the audio would "dda,dda,add,aa,d,da" a lot and the picture would pixelate (is that a word?).
So, I did the analysis and it suggested the Winegard HD7696P. So I bought it and installed. I then got better reception, much less if any pixalation or "dadd,aa,ddd,a,aaadd" audio.
BUT, I completely lost channel 11 -- WXIA-DT; Real=10; (Virt =11.1); NBC; 57.2 NM(db); Pwr -33.7; LOS; 13.6 miles; 8* true and 12* Mag.
If you will look at the chart, Channel 30 and 46 are both in the same direction and same distance away, and I get them perfectly.
So, I went back up and put up my old antenna below the 7696P and connected them both.
Wa-la, I got Channel 11 back.
Why?
