Thanks for the report. You got lucky.

The antenna is directional, so it is more sensitive to CBC when it is aimed directly at it.

If it had been OK for CBC, but not the NW signals, you would have needed two antennas, one for NW and one for SSE, with a switch to select which direction you want. And you would have to rescan after each change of direction unless your TV can add a channel after scan.

Another solution would be a UHF antenna aimed NW and a bi-directional VHF antenna for NW and SSE, like the Antennas Direct C2V.

Do you still get Fox with the antenna aimed SSE?
