I've had an antenna for a while but my knowledge is very minimal. The general concepts I understand but I am looking to take my reception to the next level with help.
I have two DB4e's...I am wanting to use them in separate directions. Most of my reception (through trial) comes from the South towards Indianapolis or North towards Fort Wayne; depending on the day it can vary. However, I am using my antenna in the worst possible way--inside on the first floor. Surprisingly, and given my location, I am able to pick up 20+ channels (including sub-channels).
I live in a house that has a old tv tower cemented to the ground outside roughly 25ft high. I was considering placing both DB4e's up there as I know that is likely my best bet for reception. There is a wooded area directly to my South covering reception to the Indy area that extends above 25ft the tv tower line.
Here is my report.

My questions are:
1.) If I improve my antenna positioning outside, given the data, would I still be in a location that would require an amplifier?
2.) Would I be able to use antennas direct VHF Kit to pick up channel 13 (NBC) or is it likely out of reach?
3.) What would be the best way to connect the two separate DB4e antennas?
Thanks
