Groundurmast,
the test used an antennas direct clear stream 2v, running about 75' of coax onto the lower roof of the house (about 15' off the ground) without any splitters. I wasn't able to play with direction too much since i was alone and had no mount, but i feel like the general direction was 196 compass- the other test was a terk indoor omni directional unit with built in amplifier.
the terk pulled in more channels with better signal, but neither found abc.
Regarding trees in my neighborhood- fairly tall trees are obstructive at either direction, but they are a distance from the house in both abc option directions (196, or 42 compass) i'd estimate the tree distance from a future outdoor vhf antenna mount to be 450' away at 42 degrees, and 200' away at 196 degrees.
btw, thanks for all you help.
