LOL. It is not the size of the antenna that matters. It's the reception it gets
The more information the better. Cross referencing forums is always a good thing.
By the way. I am originally from the Kingston area of NY.
I would hate to ruin perfectly good vintage antenna by modifying in that way. Even if it meant capturing a broader range of frequencies.
I am using an RCA preamp.
Currently it is grabbing channels
2.1, 2.2, 2.3 (41) PBS
5.1, 5.2, 5.3 (5) NBC
11.1, 11.2 (11) CBS
19.1, 19.2, 19.3, 19.4 (27) ABC
36.1, 36.2, 36.3, 36.4 (36)
39.1, 39.2 (38) FOX
68.1, 68.2, 68.3, 68.4
and a couple odd very weak channels that come and go.
I really need to find a tilt tower to significantly increase my elevation.
