How many tv's will be connected? Are you in apt. or house or something else?

Thanks for replying, we are going to have two tv sets hooked to the antenna and we live in a rural area off a main highway. We live in a house, mainly flowering pear trees in the yard.

The antenna is the Winegard HD7082P and the 2 way splitter is the Winegard SP-2052. The most common types of tv antenna roof mounts are the Tri-Pod mount and the Chimney mount. If you are installing new coax cable , then RG-6 solid copper center conductor coax. Find at http://www.solidsignal.com . . Point the antenna at WDRL channel 24 , magnetic compass reading 327. Also notice the virtual channels and real channels , notice that WBRA virtual 15.1 is Real 3.1 . . . ROKU/NETFLIX is Great , over 12,000 Movies and Tv Shows for $10.00 a month

I prefer an eave mount or a wall mount below the eaves. Those methods avoid holes in the roof and allow the antenna to be accessed from a ladder without climbing on the roof.

10' long TV antenna mast is cheap, but the shipping isn't. If you can't find TV mast locally, look for galvanized 1 3/8" chain link fence top rail.
