I've read that DIY M4s and GH-type bay antennas have good gain, say around 14+ dBi in the low UHF range, so I'm building one to try out.

Also, got a rusty CM 4221 with pre-amp (KT-200) that an pick up RF 22 and sometimes 43 (NMs -8, -10dB) with the *correct* weather/tropo conditions. (heh).

Even with non-ideal weather, I see about 30-40% signal.. I need to get a higher gain to bring it above 60% to get a picture lock on my Sony (read it's one of the better ATSC tuners, in addition to LG, and Samsung).
