Two things... One, I now have a Steely Dan song stuck in my head.

The other, I'll give turning stuff off a shot. The thing with multipathing though is that all my vhf signals (7, 11, 13) are coming from the same antenna on the Empire State Building - shouldn't they all be doing this? I do see WNET-13 has a fairly wimpy 9kW output, so I'm going to see if the preamp does anything - if it makes things better, then I know I'm just in a bad area (very low here, near the "Great Swamp" with a range of mountains between us and NYC). If it gets worse, then I'm dealing with interference.

Any other ideas are welcome... I'll also try to figure out how to get a monitor of some sort in the attic for some real-time aiming help.
