Also, I will raise the guyed bearing ASAP, but want to have my antenna choices by then. I will order Tuesday. Not procrastinating, just collecting info.

Thanks, Bob
The original CM4228 could pick up some VHF signals because it used a VHF/UHF ferrite core balun, but the new 4228HD doesn't do well with VHF-High channels because it uses a printed circuit board balun.
