@teleview: Thank you for your suggestions for alternate tuner setups. I've been using a HDHomeRun prime with MythTV so switching over to the HDHR is the ideal solution if I can make it work.

@GroundUrMast: Thank you for your feedback on how the HDHR works in your environment. It's nice to hear that my preferred solution is working well for someone.

@StephanieS: Thank you for your input as well. Given the radar plots I suspected that I should be able to get better reception than what I'm getting currently. It's nice to have confirmation. I currently only have a single lead as recommended while I get everything sorted out. The only reason I have amplification is that it was built into the antenna. I will certainly try without amplification with the CM5016 antenna and work from there. As to the splitter, I would expect it to be best to split at the point to produce the least overall total length of cable. That would put the split point at about 45 feet of cable with the 4 additional cable runs being approximately 16', 16', 28' and 18'.
