Tried several variations of above suggestions. With rods adjusted down to 12.5" each side gives me 4-5 bars reception on all 11 channels... The "adjustment" brought in FOX channel 23.1 (UHF) even better than before; Thanks!
Only problem is, still no PBS channel 10.1 (VHF)... Silly question, but -- could FOX channel signal be overriding PBS channel (see analysis chart in original post)?
If not, can someone suggest another antenna to try? I really miss not having PBS...
THANKS AGAIN!!
