I finally had time to check some things out. I found my compass and checked the antennas. The VHF was 340 degrees and the UHF 345. Then I brought a small flat panel into the shed and connected right to the antenna. I got just about every channel.
Then I moved the TV to the house, 150' of cable no amplifier and lost more than half the channels. I have no way of knowing the signal strength with the way digital is you have it or you don't.
So I need an amp. Originally I had a Wineguard preamp that boosted UHF only but that got fried in a lighting storm. I have a Vanco 10 db amp of dubious quality that I may try tomorrow. So any ideas for an amp and is there a low buck way to measure signal strength.
