I consulted directly with Rohn before constructing. The weight and windload are well within specifications. The tower is guyed and grounded to specifications.

What does the size of the demarcation box have to do with insertion loss?

The VHF Channels are much weaker than the UHF Channels in my area. Also, the spacing needed for VHF antennas is higher than UHF. After much trial and error, this is the configuration that fit my needs.

The box is plastic and the coax is shielded. I am not ganging the antennas to boost signal. I am receiving VHF and UHF from two separate directions.

My DVR has 4 separate tuners. I realize an A/B switch would result in the best signal, but that is not the best solution for my needs.

Should be faced the same way and the same for the seller's LAB antennas too that can all so creat MULTIPATH as well It looks like you have a good mess too fix well I had the same set up but the other way around and with the title sistom for the 91xg!!!and no MULTPATH
Prblem'S and the hi vh F 1500miles of RECEIVE range with a channel master 7777amp
I am not ganging the antennas to boost signal. I am ganging to achieve one input to my distribution amp.

I used solid copper core RG6 and I do not have a preamp. I do not see the need to use more expensive cable when, in my case, it is not necessary. How do you connect RG8 50 ohm wire to your TV?
