Based on that TVFool and the lack of any specifics as to what additional stations were desired, I see no application for a DB8e. A small to medium U/V combo is recommended for the locals.

Your situation illustrates very well that common misconception that "Bigger has to better, right?" that is often seen. In your situation the higher gain, longer range UHF antenna has too narrow of a beam width to be able to pick up weak, distant signals outside the reception lobes. Then, when things don;t work out the way the person thought they wold, they blame the product.

We offer 7-day a week customer service including technical support and expert antenna recommendations so as to help improve the odds of our customers getting it right the first time.
