Here is my report:
http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wr...8e03e89b691d75
My old cheap ebay antenna has a built in amp and rotor on a 20' mast and I get all channels in the LOS path (Tallahassee area approx 45-50 miles) and I get reception to several 1Edge (Panama City about 68-70 miles away). Panama City has outage issues early in the mornings sometime but otherwise comes in pretty good.
I am going to have to replace my current antenna because of how cheaply it is made. The arms are fold out arms for ease of packing and birds are constantly pushing off and close them back up. I am constantly having to go on my roof and push them back out again with a long stick. Also, I live directly on the ocean and the back panel is not aluminum and is beginning to rust because of the salt air. So I need a good rugged replacement that will survive the birds and salt air and maybe get me a few more channels with stronger reception.
It looks like all the stations the reports give me are 90 degrees each side of true north (180 degree spread). That makes sense since south is all ocean.
Any advice would be appreciated. I want as many stations as possible and an antenna that will last.
Thank you,
Mike
