WWWM-FM is 64.1 dB stronger than WJBK and 68 dB stronger than CBET.
Yes, I use a FM filter, I broke down & tried a separate rotor cable & hooked up the Juice preamp, I have to eat my words as I went from 16 the afternoon to 32 channels with preamp pointing 22 degrees magnetic (the Detroit sweet spot), still no 20 though which is strange as that is usually one of the easiest pull prior to the recent setup. I haven't watched 7 too much but the little I watched in the afternoon was pretty intermittent still.
WJBK has been rock solid, zero break up all times of the day up since the 30-2476 install, even w/o the preamp, 9 is better post preamp with slight break up.
