To say your reporting of "poor reception" is unclear would be kind.


Please take a few moments and clarify the following:

1) Do you have a DB8 or a DB8e (we don't have a DB8x)?
2) Do you have the C2 or the C2V. They are different models with the C2V having the VHF element on the back.

3) What are you calling "poor reception"? With a C2 and a DB8 facing opposite directions, I'd expect a very different set of results for each case. Report the actual results.

Did you re-scan when switching antennas?

why with just a small antenna mounted in the garage receives the same amount of signals/channel as one mounted outside 20'.
Ideas include:

1. Didn't rescan
2. You were already receiving all that is available.
3. Ill-selected pre-amp is going into gain compression on the north-facing antenna.
