I like option 3 also; it would give you a chance to try SOMETHING to satisfy your curiosity without being reminded of the incompetent installer, or putting you at greater physical risk.

I also forgot to add, there is a cell phone tower very close to the Detroit point so I'm curious if this LTE Filter might improve reception I wasn't at all aware of cell tower interference prior to reading about this filter.
This will become a more common problem as the cell transmitters move into the frequencies previously used by the TV transmitters above CH51 and given to commercial interests by the FCC.

This has become a problem in England; you will see filters available there, but they are rare here. Antennas Direct is a harbinger; they added the LTE filter to the Juice, but didn't have enough room left in the housing to also include an FM filter.

The attachment has the curve of the Radio Shack LTE filter that was done by ADTech IIRC.
