Yeah,Aha! It was right in my face, I just had to open my eyes.
Now, how does one deal with this issue? Filters are out. I dropped the gain on the 10G212 gradually, hoping the local station might have enough Umpf to overcome WMFP...nope. WMFP is just a hair shy of locking here, the meter rocks back and forth
And with summer coming fast and furious, the enhancements will be stronger and more numerous. In a heavy duct, I may just be able to receive WMFP, which is cool on one hand, but a PITA on the other hand. Or not, as the signal from Boston has got to be pinging off of all kinds of mountains in the the path. MULTI-PATH CITY!!!
Any suggestions as to a direction I might go to correct this? (Yeah, I know, I'm a dreamer, ain't I)
