How close are your antennas to each other? Can you take a pic & post it?

I would agree that I need more signal at the antenna. Yes, the antennas are maybe mounted too close right now, but I'll fix that with the new longer mast. My house is in a slight hollow, (and surrounded by woods) below the level of the houses to the South and South-East which are on a ridge probably 5-10ft higher. Even with my antenna mast at 35', I don't think the VHF antenna quite clears the roof of the house I have to aim over for vhf channel 12. Without an amp, I lose some of the channels, or they pixelate badly.
Even with my mast up another 10 feet, I will still be in the hollow and surrounded by trees. You should figure that my TvFool above shows signals more than probably almost DOUBLE of what I can actually receive.
