My CM antenna works great for VHF from the southwest without preamplification.
That's nice, but can it do UHF and VHF with a preamp?

If I could reliably pick up WTAE on my DB8e, I would have no need for WWCP 8.
If your report is correct, you shouldn't be having trouble getting WTAE, even with the CM antenna and a preamp.

One disadvantage of the DB8e is that it has a narrow beamwidth that might not be able to cover all your SW channels.
