Every path is different, which is why checking the path profile (by clicking on a station's listing in TVFool) is pretty handy. In his case, the ridges seem to be right at the path midpoint, which puts him beyond the radio horizon for Columbus. He has to rely on the generosity of Mother Nature to bend signals over. The modelling of the path for signal strength
at broadcast reliability indicates no reception.
Is your NM + or - 9.6? Is this with antenna gain/preamp noise figure or without?
