For many reasons, I have to get rid of Directv. We don't watch it enough to justify the payment and the channels that we do watch are all local channels.
Here is my information:

I have tried everything I can think of to find local channels, but I can only receive from the transmitter behind our house. I have tried an ANT751 (returned it) and now have a DB4e. I have changed the height of the mast, placed it in different places on the roof, raised it as high as possible, and added a preamplifier....I still cannot receive any of the major channels. What frustrates me more is that I have two neighbors in similiar situations that both receve up to 26 channels. My home sits lower than one of the homes and higher than the other. I do have homes, about 30 feet higher than ours, in our reception path. Shouldn't be enough of an obstruction to receive at least one or two channels
I don't get it. I am so frustrated. I have tried every angle. It leads me to believe there is a problem with the cable or my TV tuner just cant receive the UHF channels (for some reason). Please help. Is there anything else I can try? Would a DB8 be more effective? how about a clearstream 4? is there anything I can do to the antenna to make it work?
