But it's easy enough to experiment, unless you have to put yourself at risk on a steep roof or something.
Is there a diagram of how the CM-2016 is set up-lobe wise (I don't know the technical name of that plot). I was thinking that I would be able to receive the Toronto stations (NNW) fairly well, as they have strong signals associated with them (and the path is mostly Lake Ontario) if I were to point South. I would just want to keep the Toronto stations within the best of the back lobe of the antenna plot (to make sure I keep getting them).
