G.U.M.,

I will check out the links. Some new developments. Last night out of curiosity I hooked the AD DB2 directly to the converter boxes (3) via a 4 ft coax cable. I was amazed to find that I was getting 100% signal on all channels but a couple that were 80 some percent. Inside with little aiming of the antenna. This antenna is truly powerful.

Tomorrow, I am going to hook it to the cables runs from my junction box to narrow down the bad connections/cables. One thing to note is that while testing one of the HD Access HTA 1080's it was very hot as noted before, but this time it smelled like an electrical short. At the time it was doing this the signal % was all over the place. I returned it to Wal-Mart today for a refund. I am looking to buy a better one if you have suggestions. Also, a good place to buy quality splitters and RG6 or better cabling. Radio Shack is just too darn expensive. Thanks again for you time and help.

Rob
