OK I'll put the RCA antenna at 140 and report back.

But I'd really like to use the digiwave to see if I can't pick up some additional UHF stations. Can I put the RCA and the digiwave both on the same chimney? I don't have an official "mast" for the digiwave antenna. I plan on using a 6'x1.25" metal pole fastened to the chimney.

The digiwave antenna I bought has two separate panels that can be aimed in different directions. Each panel has its own coaxial cable and there's a small signal joiner to join the two cables. I was thinking I could aim the two panels in separate directions and instead of joining the signal at the antenna bring down two separate coaxial feeds into a simple switch. Then adjust each side separately. Would this work?
