Thanks, Teleview...nice planning tip for additional cabling; ran across a discount price on double QS RG-6 bundled with a single CAT 5e which would add some flexibility. Will probably run some raceway tubing and/or pull string from central panel to individual outlets for future cabling needs.

It makes sense to maximize the most of what is available in terms of signal. Are there channels within an azimuth range that I would expect to receive watchable signal by pointing @ 156°? IOW, should I theoretically expect to receive WDCW (ch 50) with an azimuth of 148°?

Just curious about the reasoning (topography, signal strength, # of channels, interference etc.) behind choosing DC as opposed to Baltimore towers. Yes, there are a lot of redundant stations amongst the Baltimore and DC towers but would it be more flexible to utilize that redundancy with the ability to easily re-direct the antenna for the occasional reception issues @156°?

Thanks for the help. It is greatly appreciated.
