My primary TV is a newer CRT with an RCA DTA800B1lL digital converter. I have a Samsung LCD but it needs a board replaced. If I connect the antenna directly to the Samsung, I can receive WOWK and WCHS but with a weak signal. The WCHS signal is only good for a few degrees of antenna rotation but does correspond with WVAH as expected. Is it possible that the Samsung has filters to block the FM band or is the RCA tuner just junk? I'll find out when I get HLSJ. I wish there was a filter I could make just for some tests.

By the way, I am still puzzled as to why I have more problems from the 3100W WLRX than the 50,000W WOUL. I further confirmed the strength by using a C. Crane FM transmitter and my stereo. I can interfere with WOUL 89.1 from 3-4 feet away. The only way I can interfere with WLRX is by electrically touching the antennas. The only reason I can think of is that WLRX has a directional antenna pointed this way.
