I concur... 100%

The EZ HD antenna does not have the twin-lead phasing / coupling harness I mentioned earlier. Still, start with an inspection of the antenna and connections. If there's no sign of corrosion or water intrusion, I would still test with a new balun / matching transformer and new coax to a single set.

If you see the same symptoms, follow ADTech's suggestion of moving the antenna, higher, lower, north east, south or west.

If that fails... let's talk the situation through some more.
