The following reception situations are tests of reception.

Some more reception situations to try , using one YA1713 antenna , connect a Kitz Tech KT-200 or KT-200-COAX TV Antenna Booster Remote Power -Coax Fed. http://www.kitztech.com.

The YA-1713 antenna and KT-200 amplifier will be connected direct to 1 Tv , no couplers , no splitters , no combiners , no joiners , no other antennas , no nothing.

Aim the YA-1713 at about 198 degree magnetic compass.

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

Try for reception with the antenna about 10 feet or less above ground.

_______________________________________________________

This next suggestion is a long shot reception method.

Known as Ground Wave , The strength of the signal is stronger at 1 foot above ground.

You can check this at tvfool radar plot , enter in 1 foot antenna height , then 2 foot antenna height , 3 foot and so forth , and see what happens to the NM(dB) signal strength.

Like I say it is a long shot , but can work.

_________________________________________________________________________

Also if the antenna is mounted at 60 feet and higher the signal strength will improve.

Here are ways to get the antenna 60 feet and higher , http://www.palcoelectronics.com/pe300.aspx
