Tv Reception.
No trouble at all , I like to look this stuff up.
Mileage figures are General reference target figure numbers.
I do the antenna recommendations based on the received signal strength.
The HD7084P and the HD8200U will both provide reception.
Sometimes I will move down from the HD8200U because it is so large.
Question askers about reception , often times begin making noises about the size of the HD8200U antenna.
I prefer to have the question asker will get reception , then to back out over the issue of antenna size.
Many people do not understand that in certain reception situations a large antenna is required.
That said , Yes the HD8200P antenna will provide some more reception ability.
Signal fade margin , the signal strength can go down and the larger antenna will still receive the signal because the extra signal gathering ability (gain) of the larger antenna , elbow room.
The HD8200U is not too much antenna.
The HD8200U is what I would use at your location.
Be sure and use a Strong and Sturdy antenna mount.
If mounting both antennas on the same mast pipe separate both antennas by about 3 feet.
If the antennas are mounted on separate antenna mounts then separate more then 3 feet.
