I tried to find a spec sheet for the combiner, I can't find it anywhere.

I wrote a detailed long response to your first post, something happened, I lost it all. Internet was down for an hour or so.

I will have to get rid of the Clearstream4V antenna in order to make room on the pole. That antenna runs another TV. I don't want to use splitters. I find I lose the weaker stations when the cable is split..

I use a SPAT102B converter box. It shows signal strength and quality.

If the power inserter had been connected to the combiner, and the VHF antenna had been connected to the UHF port of the combiner, and the switch was ON, that might damage the VHF balun.

I am 100% confident that the cables are good and all the connections are right. I will have some time later this week to troubleshoot some more.
Thank you for responding to my post.
