Antenna Suggestions

Trying to help out parents. Here is the link to the report
http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wr...8e03b0bc2e3962

Looking at possibly replacing current satellite setup. Mainly looking at options for CBS (Real 40), NBC (31), ABC (13) , and FOX (29).

Thanks!

Welcome, jds_innc!

You did not enter a value for the antenna height when you created your TV Fool Report. Can you please prepare a new report with the intended height of the antenna?

Also, where are you hoping to put the antenna? Outside on the roof? In the attic (attics can be challenging)?

From your current report, you have both high VHF and UHF signals, so one of the larger combination antennas pointed at 25 degrees on a compass is likely the solution. But a more accurate TV Fool Report is needed first.

Thanks.

Here is an updated report. I'm not exactly certain of the height, but this will be an outdoor mount. Most likely be outside on the roof, so I'm guesstimating here.

Thanks again!

I'd go with an HD7694P with a modest gain preamp such as the TVPRAMP-1R.
