Good to know... I'll Make sure to keep the distance and disable it during testing. If I suddenly have issues after turning it back on, I'll know why...
It's too nasty out today to be on the roof 30+ feet up, so I set the antenna on a 10' pole and put it back on the deck in an umbrella mount of our picnic table. lol
I am extremely happy to announce that your antenna recommendation was spot on and I can pull in every major network with the antenna pointed in one direction. Once the weather gets better, my next trick will be to get the same result on the roof, because the wife is not impressed with it on the deck.
lol
