Thank you for all your input, I appreciate you taking the time to offer assistance to a complete idiot here!

I will ask my husband to try and get the antenna on the roof - or at least outside and high up. Height is not either one of our favorite things! But maybe we can at least try to see what the antenna picks up outside.

I re-purchased the Clearstream CV2 again, so I will try that antenna for this test. HOWEVER, when I look at the specs for the Clearstream CV2 it says it is for UHF 7-13. Two of my channels that are giving me more problems than others are the real channel 5 and also 13. So the Clearstream will still work with the lo-uhf channel 5?

I also will test disconnecting the Tivo premiere and see if I still get pixels. I will say that we had the Tivo HD (I think it died, so cannot use it anymore) connected and the signals it received seemed to be much better than what the premiere is getting. So maybe the Tivo premiere is the root of the problem. Or at least making it much worse than it should be.....

All very confusing!! If cable hadn't kept consistently raising their prices I would still be with them. But the price they charge for their horrible tv channels is simply not worth the money. Free TV would be wonderful, but I had no idea it would be this difficult to get consistent signals.
