Hey folks nice to see a forum like this. I am trying to get this right the first time. I purchased a cheap RCA model ANT700R at walmart just to see if I can get signals. Well I got 29 channels. Problem is 10 or so were only at 50% signal, rest were at 90s. I need to mount this close to the front of my house so i'm trying to stay on the smaller size, as far as antennas go. Also once it comes into the house it splits to a 4 way splitter then to a 3 way. So I have been looking at a DB4 (with a VHF kit sold by antennasdirect)or a Clearstream 2-V from antennas direct. Will either of these boost my signals on those 50ish ones? Also will either of these pick up NBC and CBS which are 45 miles to the south on high VHF? Do I need a pre-amp or a distribution amp or both? If these are no good any suggestions are welcome. Antenna will be mounted 15-18 feet up on a pole. Thanks in advance. Here is my report.
