Ok, I think that I have everything sorted out and I'm ready to order (and the whole lot comes to under $200).

Antennacraft U-4000 UHF/HD
Winegard HD 5030 VHF/FM
Pico Macom UVSJ Combiner
Channel Master CM1805 Mast
Antennas Direct CPA-19 Pre-Amp
Winegard CA8800 FM Band Separator
Channel Master CM3212 Splitter

Did I miss anything?

I want to get it fully installed and set up on the mast before taking it up the tower... or at least that is the plan. Did it that way 20 years ago just have to decide if I have the nerve to do it again by climbing the tower or if I let the local volunteer firedepartment do it (to raise funds as they have a bucket truck with 50' reach they will do antenna replacements for a $250 donation).



p.s. I quickly entered the coordinates of our old place into TVFool. I never realized how much of a high spot we were living on. The stations which show as Tropo showed as 2Edge from our old address.

Did a little playing and to get the same reception here would need to put up around a 200' antenna

The neighbours would really love that right next door
