Finally, I'm able to stream WHEC and WHAM news from my Roku.
I'd hate to hear about someone injured or worse trying to fix an
antenna.

PLEASE LET SOMEONE KNOW YOU ARE GOING ON YOUR ROOF.

Make arrangements to call them back in a certain period of time,
otherwise, they come over to help.
Ha, thanks Joe. Keep your eye on the news!

Some friends of mine suggested exactly what you recommended when I told them the story a couple of weeks ago. I didn't do that yesterday, but I did take my wireless land-line phone with me (no cell signal here), I tied a rope to the ladder, and had a second ladder in place in another spot.

When I got down yesterday, no CBS as I noted above. But later in the evening it came in fine (weather got colder).

I ordered a new housing from Wineguard Direct.

A big "Thanks!" to all, I will update as needed.
