Thanks for your reply.....
The Canadian channels get some pixellation (sometimes they are great for a few hours then they start losing pixellation...off and on) and the CBS/NBC channels get "digital signal low" most of the time...again they do work (but less than Canadian), quality is good but they do lose signal.
For the moment putting something on the roof (due to snow) is out of the question...so the main goal is to get better signal strength. Which is why I thought getting a DB4 plus a rotor and pre-amp would help. Would it? The cabin is used a few times a month and my friend (his cabin) is happy with the channels he gets...he just wants consistent signal strength. Getting 3 main english canadian channels (6,12,15) plus CBS/NBC would be enough. He once managed to get the PBS channels (33) and they were working for a few hours but hasn't been able to get them since.
I'll suggest he looks into the antennas you mentioned (for spring)...but for now...what could he do to get "better" signal strength? It would be attached to the side of the cabin like the DB2 is now.
Thanks.
