I'm still processing why this didn't work. Is the HD-9032 too directional for my needs, i.e. is the diffraction causing the inbound RF to come at me from various different angles such that most of it is missing the aperture of the antenna?

And a stacked reflector like the DB8E will effectively have a larger aperture allowing more of that energy to be captured?

On the HDHomeRun that is hooked up to my ANT751 pointed to the south, the other night I forced it to CH43 and CH38 and noticed it detecting some signal strength, ~50 out of 100 possible on both channels, but the symbol quality score was 0 except for some occasional brief instances when it seemed to shoot up before immediately coming back down.
