Do you know which WGAL you get? Is it the main signal on VHF 8 or is it the signal on UHF 49? If you are getting WGAL on Real 49, then your VHF situation is easier than it looks from the radar plot.
Do you get/need the programming from WGCB?

Thanks for the reply.
To answer your first question, I'm picking up the UHF 49 signal from WGAL. The indoor antenna we have is pretty much a UHF, although Channel 27's signal is so strong that it picks that up as well.
As to the second one, no, we do not need the programming from WGCB. The few times it was picked up in the channel scan, it refused to come in at all.
At some point, I'll try taking the antenna to the attic or outside. I figure the cost of the coax cable will be justified by the experiment. Where the TV is in the living room, fishing a line into the attic from there would not be a problem if it succeeds but I would hate to put a hole in the wall for nothing.
