First off, it is my experience that high VHF signals in the 25.7 NM(dB) range aren't all that weak. The 4.1 dB gain of the HBU-22 should work fine unless the poster is splitting to a lot of TVs. ...

The one nice thing about the RCA DTA800B1 is the signal strength meter on it (and the fact that you can store channels and rescan on the B1). I'd use the RCA DTA800B1 to point the antenna for the...
