->ALL<- Questions and Answers about Broadcast Tv Reception and More.

Your location has receivable Tv stations/channels in both the VHF high band of channels 7 thru 13 and the UHF band channels 14 thru 51.

For reception of the Eugene OR. Digital Tv stations /channels.

Install a Winegard HD7696P antenna that is designed to receive the Tv channels 7 thru 13 and 14 thru 51 , above the roof.

Aim the HD7696P antenna at about 160 degree magnetic compass.

Here is how to aim antennas , http://www.kyes.com/antenna/pointing/pointing.html.

For one Tv connected no splitter or amplifier is used.

For 2 Tv's connected use a Channel Master CM3412 distribution amplifier.

For 3 or 4 Tv's connected use a CM3414 distribution amplifier.

Here are some above the roof antenna mounts , http://www.ronard.com/909911.html , http://www.ronard.com/34424560.html , http://www.ronard.com/ychim.html , http://www.ronard.com.

Buy the ronard antenna mounts at solidsignal by typing the word ronard in the solidsignal search box.

Here are places to buy antennas and etc. , http://www.solidsignal.com , http://www.winegarddirect.com , http://www.channelmasterstore.com , http://www.amazon.com.

To avoid signal overload resulting in bad reception I am not recommending a preamplifier.

KOAC-DT 7 PBS is a Very Strong signal and will over load a preamplifier causing bad reception on more then one Tv channel.

KEPB-DT 29 PBS to the south is the same as KOAC. http://en.wikipedia.org/Oregon_Public_Broadcasting.

And K14GW-D 14 is the same as KSLR-DT 31 to the south.

So no requirement to aim any antenna to the west.
