Hello,
I need some help. I moved to a new location with an existing TV antenna, I hooked up my Televisions (3) to the existing set up and the reception is pretty poor. I tried to adjust it and it does not seem to get any better. I am willing to purchase a new system but I am a little overwelmed with the choices. I will do my best to explain what I have here know. Here is my tvfool report: http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=29&q=id%3da362b65dd8789b
The existing antenna is mounted on the chimney about 20 feet up. I would like to relocate it because of the damage to the brick chimney caused by the straps that were used. I have purchase about 35 feet of older TV tower I can mount a new antenna on. The antenna itself looks like this: http://www.solidsignal.com/pview.asp?mc=03&p=CM-3679&d=Channel-Master-CM3679-Deep-Fringe-Crossfire-Series-TV-Antenna-(CM3679)&c=TV Antennas&sku=
but the tag is faded off so I do not know the actual brand. There is also a winegard AP-8780 preamp hooked up in the basement prior to a splitter. I also have a Permacolor 10G207 preamp that is not hooked up.
So does anyone have any sugestions? I hope to get all the channels out of Columbus and any others is a plus. Trying to get things going before Football is in full swing.
Thanks in advance for any help.
