^^^I have the 91XG pointed right at 129 degrees for KMIZ. Basically a couple of people told me the adjacent channel was going to be the primary problem for reliable reception of Ch. 17. However, since I am getting it reliably every night and into the morning for a few hours, I would have to believe that may not be the case. There are a lot of trees surrounding the property and I think that is the real impediment aside from the somewhat hilly terrain between my home and the tower.

I am going to try a C4 later this week to see if that makes any difference. According to Antennas Direct the gain the lowest UHF channels is slightly better than the 91XG. I may also switch out the 91XG for the MXU59 to see if that will make a difference. I plan to run a shorter cable run into the home and replace the RG6 with RG11. That should result in roughly another DB of signal gain.
