I have both the FM6 & Winegard 6055 & find the 6055 slightly better, but not by a lot. The modified FM6 is a stellar performer. It see's stations up to 150 miles away (not listenable, but they are heard pretty much 24/7) even inside an attic.
The mast is metal but I followed the intstructions and made sure there is at least 2" of clearance between the mast and those zig zag things that run down the antenna (forget what they're called). The HD stacker is mounted about 36" below, I'm likely going to take it down when I can find someone to buy it. I can get all the same stations VHF and UHF with the FM6 with the same signal quality.

Are the 2-3dB gains across the whole 88-108Mhz spectrum?
