Joe and Jake, thanks for the posts.
I've been thinking of taking the Winegard outside to see how it does.
The cable is already there for the dish and I could run an extension cord up there for power.
I emailed Winegard last week in regards to their FL6550A outside antenna.
To me it looked like the outdoor version of my antenna(a flatwave in an enclosure), but they emailed me back and said it was directional and wouldn't get anything off the back side. If I thought I could build a weatherproof enclosure for the flatwave that could withstand snow, rain and wind I might try that. I think the north wind would get it though.
I didn't know that about the antenna/amp combos. Yeah with the power unplugged it got nothing.
We are expecting good weather this week, so hopefully I can experiment a little bit.
