Nice to hear.

I would be curious the strength of KFFX RF 11 though. If your signal is weak and just above threshold of reception, weather may affect it. It may be a good idea to install the Y10-7-13 anyway are my thoughts. The Y10-7-13 will likely yield an increase in strength and stability over the CM4221's reception.

Did you pull in KEPR? I imagine the Wenatchee area translators are the others that made an appearance. I'm also very curious about KBWU-LD, RF channel 36. It is a lower powered UHF repeater for KFFX for the immediate Tri-Cities metro. Does your TV give you a menu that will give you the real RF channel instead of the virtual?

Could you give a highlights of the stations you picked up?

No turning of the antenna or anything, just a rescan and I went from maybe 15 channels to 31 digital and 2 analog. That includes the 11.1 and 11.2 VHF that I was trying to get. They come in perfect so now I am not sure I am going to install the Y10713 after all. Might wait and see if it is consistent. Then again, I have it just sitting here, might try it to see what else I can find.
