Thanks again for the guidance.
My HDHR "Signal Quality" does fluctuate in the "yellow" range (in the 60s, generally), though the "Symbol Quality" seems consistent at 100%.
I'd estimate my cable length at ~100 feet (~50 feet from antenna to network box, ~50 feet from network box to wall outlet).
I did place the antenna to try to minimize cable length, also attempting to hide it from street view. The resulting location has the antenna mounted on the edge of my roof line (i.e. the lowest point of the roof relative to the peak, near the gutters), pointed back towards the upward pitch of the roof. The roof slopes ~30 degrees and is probably 1.5-3 feet above the top of the antenna at the highest point. Is it possible that the roof itself is blocking the broadcast signal? I am assuming no, but never hurts to check.
I suppose I can try it and see if I have issues, and switch to another antenna if necessary.
Just curious: Why does the Yagi style antenna perform better than the bowtie style of the CM 4220?
Thanks again!
