If you have HOA (Homeowner's Association) in your area, the FCC says your antenna can be as high as 12 ft above the peak of your roof. If you don't have a HOA, the local government might have height restrictions. With small towers, you add a rotator at the top. With larger towers, the rotator can be mounted within the top section. If you are thinking about a tower, does that mean the trees are in the way now?

scroll down to Trees and UHF

I don't have personal experience with Denny's Stacker. It looks like a VHF/UHF Combo antenna that has been cut in the middle, and one section put above the other to reduce the length.

So thats a no on Denny's antenna?
It wouldn't be my first choice, but you are welcome to try it if you like it. It's your antenna and your money.

It sounds like you don't want to try to bring your present antenna back to life and would rather put the money into a new antenna.
