Well, no need to wait until tommorow to tell you the results of the Winegard 7694p. And that is, it was not that good.
Tried first without the preamp on, pointed to philly, did a wipe of channels (I can scan channels without wiping out what's there.)
Only a handful of channels were found. CBS, NBC, Mynine and 2 more I don't care for. Only NBC had a picture, everything else didn't.
Then I hooked up the RCA preamp (FM trap on), still pointed at philly, did another channel wipe, and this time it found all the channels in the first post, that the C2V did without a preamp. I had to move the 7694 to find a "sweet" spot so all channels came in good. I found that spot. I never had to do this with the C2V, I just pointed at Philly and it was good. It never found WHYY (PBS) and I did a channel scan at different heights and turned the FM trap off.
Then pointed the 7694 to Baltimore with the RCA preamp (FM trap on), didn't do a channel wipe, just scanned and it found all the channels in the first post except for WBAL-TV 11 (11.1) NBC. Again I had to move the antenna slightly a little bit so to find the "sweet" spot, so all the channels from Baltimore the scanned came in ok. Never had to do this with the C2V, I just pointed at Baltimore and it was good (except for CBS Baltimore, I did have to move the C2V a little before I got a clear picture). It never found WBAL NBC.
I was at this for a few hours, trying different heights (the closer I got to the roof, the worse the signal), FM trap on/off.
So now I am just thinking I should get myself a C2 (without the V). What say you? Just get a C2 and call it a day for UHF? I am still considering a DB8e, just so I don't have to move an antenna to get Baltimore, but like you said earlier, it may not work good with the panels pointed in different directions.
For VHF I am thinking I may never get WHYY here. Anything else I can try for VHF-H?
Thanks for all your help rabbit73
