Good news on the CPA-19

It appears that I misread the description of the CPA-19 "While this Pre-Amplifier works well with any antenna, the CPA19 is designed with the ClearStream antenna models in mind." Thank you for correcting me. I will pick up the CPA-19.

The Gray-Hoverman antenna looks very very appealing but for now my time is rather limited and I think that a commercial off the shelf antenna will be my better option. When life slows down a bit I do want to try my hand at making my own antenna again.

The more I read the more I feel like I should just take televiews advice as a whole. Looking at the comparison of the CM 4228 and the Antennas Direct DB8 I will get better gain on the lower frequency UHF channels from the CM 4228, which is exactly what it appears that I need. I guess the only real question that I'm left with at this point is: Is it worth waiting for the CM 4228 on back order for two weeks over getting the DB8 or something else comparable? Thanks again all.
