Centralia, WA, yes. Forget the 192 station, due to a hill and thick trees. Right now, at just about due north, I'm getting KCPQ-13, KZJO, and "antenna" channel.

The 348 is straight through some trees. The quality is spotty, but might improve with leaf-loss in the winter.... I'll be very happy if I can get the Seahawk games, in any form.

The 10.... can't find it. Maybe an amp would help, as there are only a few branches in the way at times.

The treeless vistas are from about 10 degrees to 100 degrees.

I would really, really like to go after those 6 degree stations.... ABC, NBC, CBS, etc. Considering it's either this or DirecTV contract, money really isn't a factor. I'm willing to put much time and effort into a possible solution. And I really don't have any neighbors, it's all sticks. I could switch to a cedar tree, get 35 feet up and a clear view on it.

Do I have the wrong antenna? I thought my channels were mostly UHF (except KCPQ-13). I would love to tap the knowledge here to help me try something, even if it likely ends in defeat.... thank you for your attention and time.
