Hey GroundUrMast,

Remember when I first posted around Oct 2011, you said I'd have a slim chance to get CHAN RF 22 from 107 miles away with NM -8 dB?

I had a Radio Shack-like VU-190 and it could not pick up that channel (but it did show a signal on my TV meter, just not strong enough).

So I got a pre-amp (KT-200)... and...

Well, after building an M8 antenna, I can get that channel about 90% of time.

It's amazing.

Also, sometimes I can get RF 20 (OMNI) and RF 26 (CBUFT).

I guess I need to get 91XG so I can get the upper UHFs (RF 32 and 43).
