I live about 17 miles west of DC. I know most towers are in NW DC. I used to get WETA (channel 26) and WMPT (channel 22) without too much trouble. But lately, reception has been getting worse, to the point where I really don't get any at all.
I receive channel 4 and 5 just fine, but channels beyond that are iffy.
Could this be symptomatic of an amplifier going bad? I have adjusted the gain all the way up and down, to no effect.
Do I have the wrong type of antenna? I think it is non-directional, but I am not an expert. Per the 1st photo, the downlead comes down to a cheapo Radio Shack amp that I have mounted under the eave to keep weather out of it. My houses north, so as you can see, the antenna is oriented about 70 degrees compass.
Here is my location:
