The least expensive legal way to do it is to run an open wire line to the good location which will carry the tv signals down to you and DC power for a preamp up the hill.

Other more expensive ways would be a satellite dish or an internet connection. The internet connection stream what is available or could be a remote connection to another location where an antenna has better reception.

Yes, WYMT is the one channel I get right now. Right now I would be happy to get WCYB and WJHL. On the hill, WCYB is strong, but WJHL is Pretty weak. I think an amplified repeater might do it though. Could I boost a SN of about 7 enough? The problem, I think, is that the top of the hill is not LOS to my house, and VHF doesn't bend that well. Too many terrain features and trees. Would this present a real issue?

Right now I have Dish Network, but WYMT, the PBS. sub channels, and the Tri-Cities sub channels are not carried on Dish. I'm not hurting for programming, but my main goal is just to supplement what I currently have.
