Interesting. I can believe that. Depends on how the signal bounces of nearby surfaces, etc.

Turns out shifting the antenna to the southwest direction did improve RF44 at the expense of WNBC (RF28), which is in the southeast quadrant on my map.

Wouldn't CBS also broadcast from NYC? I'm in northern NJ, so northeast is upstate NY or CT.

WABC (RF7), is also directly in the southeast direction, and that picture is perfect. Is it just because it's a little bit closer that's the difference?

Obviously I'd like to avoid the rotor, and finding the happy middle place is my best option right now.

Thanks for hanging with me :-)
