This is what I thought, and it is not covered on HDTVPrimer - or if it is, it is hidden in the discussion of combiners.
In this case, two antennas in different directions, is it not the case that if one of them is 90 degrees off the other, the phasing issue will be eliminated because the output from the second will be zero?
But I still have the combiner loss too, right? And is that loss 3 db?

I'm currently getting lots of channels, including many that the system says are 2edge. On the chart at the link above, I most everything up to WKBW, the exceptions being WUTV and CHEX analog (poor image, no sound, don't care. 9, in high VHF, is in and out.
And that's pretty good, but it will start fading when it gets cooler. By the end of October most of the Buffalo stations will be marginal or gone, and 9 will be barely usable.
So, I'd like to fix the fading, and ideally add ION to my list.
