I will order a HLSJ. I've tried a RS 15-577 without noticeable improvement.

The antennas are installed on the edge of the tree line, on the shore of a lake, with two miles of open water on the line to the transmitter. No trees or obstructions.

They are stacked vertically at 12' and 15.5'. Separation is 42" and about 2/3 the wavelength of chan 9. This agrees with Winegard stacking recommendations, except I'm using a RS 15-1141 splitter rather than a Winegard cc7870.

I use a Sansonic converter box connected to a VCR. The signal strength meter reads quality and strength. VHF quality reads 0 to 100, is variable but often stable at about 30.
Strength is stable at about 80, even when the screen is blank and the quality is 0. Can this information help you?

Thanks, everyone!!!
