Please read Guidelines when asking for help then post a link to your TV Fool report.

A TV fool report based on the community name suggests that reception of one or two PBS stations may be possible. I'm reluctant to make a specific recommendation regarding antenna type and height without accurate information though.

An omnidirectional antenna will have little or no chance of receiving either PBS signal. There are a combination of issues including strong local signals vs. weak signals from the PBS stations - There are also adjacent and co-channel interference sources. I expect that you will need to consider using a high gain directional antenna and low noise preamp to see the PBS signals.

When we have the needed information we'll be glad to help.

Thanks
