@ Tripelo. Your welcome.
Assuredly, your correct, there has been some good information posted and many readers may find informative and helpful.
I’ve read a thousand posts over many months and I can’t recall reading about so many modern, popular, and high performance antennas being discussed at once.
Given my location - I wish I knew what the best antenna system was to avoid much trial and error.
Given my fringe location - I’m planning to pull the trigger on a large Yagi that has low VHF, upper VHF and UHF capability, since VHF may be easier to receive. Also, being hopeful to receive some UHF channels. If not, may consider adding a good 8 Bay below it with a preamp to increase UHF reception.
For RG-6 Coaxial cable, what brand is the best?
Coaxial cable, has anyone used RG-11? If so, how much improvement in signal/reception quality?
Where is it sold?
THANKS for greatly detailing the listed antennas – Very helpful.
1. Winegard HD8200P
2. Channel Master 3671 Crossfire
3. XG-91
4. Antennacraft SuperG 1483 (the stacked Hooverman version)
5. Stacked CM-4228HD
6. Stacked DB8’s…
@ GroundUrMast. Thanks for comparing, explaining, and sharing your experience in the performance difference of the 91XG and the DB8E. I think the Y10713 is a great antenna for Hi VHF CH7 – CH13, but I’m concerned, given my location, 65 – 70 miles may exceed its limits. Also, I like the fact that it will be less susceptible to FM Xmitter signal power interference and allows for more flexibility when fine tuning.
@ Pete Higgins. Thanks for explaining the types of antennas in your setup. Thanks for explaining the combination of the Y10-7-13 with single/double 91XG’s, and single/double HDB8-X’s, and what the performance results were. Nice - two arrays, one pointing at SD and the other at LA.
Time Warner cable – given your Forte’ in OTA antenna subject, I thought you cut the cord. Backup Plan?
Thanks again to any all replies, advice, knowledge, and wisdom – much appreciated!
