Before you go overboard trying to get them to come in, you might see if anyone in your area has a known working setup. It would suck to spend a day on the antenna tower if the problem's at the transmit end.

Wow! Well Son of a dB!
YES I have been up and down over the past couple of days about 15 times. Some of that is good I guess. I just took it off of 291 degrees and put it back more to the west. So I'll be back up there again.
On the bright side I've been reading a lot. Thinking I needed maybe a DB8e or a Super G 1483. Blowing my mind that KCTV 5 a half mile away has a mega signal. Brain hurts.
Guess I'll have to do some research to see the status of that transmitter.
But I did get my HomeRunHD tuners going. GroundUrMast has taught me a lot and was using to see 4 stations at once today trying to dial it in via my oldest.
Here is a picture earlier today of the KCTV and WDAF station next to each other on top. One perfect one dead. And two backside UHF bonus channels that I don't have to have another antenna setup.
Thanks!
