The issue with the VHF high band channels 7 thru 13.

Is Multi-Path reflections.

Bouncing off of , buildings , big signs , trees and tree leaves and etc. .

And also bouncing off the ground.

And 1 and 2 or more Edge Path obstructions create multi-path.

VHF high band channels 7 and 9 are effected more then the other high band channels.

And also , ATSC-Digital Broadcast Tv transmissions do not travel through trees and other obstructions as well as Analog does.

-----------

The signal strength of channel 7 is enough signal strength for reliable reception.

When signal strength is enough for reliable reception.

Then Signal Quality becomes more important for reliable reception.

Less obstructions in the path of reception and less multi-path means better signal quality.

Yes the HBU33 is a big enough antenna to receive channel 7.

The antenna might be in a low signal spot and or multi-path spot.

Home Depot and Lowes , have , -Top Rail- chain link fence pipe that comes in 10 foot long sections. And the price is low dollars.

Try raising the antenna height to find a better spot for reception.

Try adjusting the aim of the antenna , sometimes aiming a antenna straight at the transmitter is not good for reception.
