Thanks for the suggestions teleview! I really appreciate it. I really like your suggestion on the Winegard amplifier: definitely a high quality piece of equipment! Looking at the specs on the Winegard HD7694P, I am wondering if maybe I need something better. Looking at the specs, the HD7694P only has a range of 35 miles VHF/25 miles UHF. The stations I would like to receive (see my original post for the list) are ~50 miles away. I did a little more looking around, and I'm wondering about the performance of some of the other antennas (there certainly are a lot available!) such as the Solid Signal Xtreme Signal HDB8X, which has a 60+ mile UHF/25 Mile High Band VHF range (which is reduced by pointing each side in different directions; I will probably use it in this setup) or the AntennasDirect DB8e, which has a 70+ mile range (UHF only-which is fine by me. I also assume that the range is dereased by pointing it in different directions, but that is not stated on the website), as well as Antennas Direct ClearStream 4 (C4-CJM).
Do you have any experience with the Winegard HD7694P or any of the antennas I mentioned? Realizing that what works for one may not work for another, I am open to hearing any suggestions. See my original post for those channels I'd really like to get, but I'm in search of as many channels as possible. Thanks in advance for your help.
