An update.

I went and re-anchored the antenna mast, zip tied the newer RG6 cable and ran it into the basement. I'm able to get the same four channels now, with WAOW being the weakest. In fact, when trying to run through a splitter, the signal for WAOW becomes too weak to reliably tune.

Running it through the CDA4 amplifier, which appears to have at least one bad output, makes WAOW come in fine and the rest gain more strength on the signal meters.

I've ordered the Hi-VHF retrofit kit from AntennasDirect and will attach that to the DB8e in hopes of making WAOW, channel 9, come in more reliably through a normal non-amplified splitter. Still zero signal apparent on channel 27 though, no matter what tuner or combination of cables. Once I have the other/main four channels working well I'd still like to try to figure out why 27 isn't coming in. Welcome any tips for that.

Thanks to everyone for the assistance.

Steve
