Yes many things here don't make sense, which is always a red flag. I will do as you suggest today and remove the amplifier from the circuit. My recollection is that I see little benefit from the amp. I have a different, indoor only, amp that I can also try.

Yesterday using the VHF antenna 30-2476 I climbed on the roof and rotated the antenna as my wife monitored the signal. I pulled in UHF #24 (PBS) with a good signal (60/100 on the LG TV).

Alas, as good as the NBC channel 9 is with the 8-bay bowtie (another mystery) it is not good enough for the SiliconDust HDTuner. While it is visually perfect in real time, it is not good enough to view over the network regardless of a wired or wireless connection. The net result is a "Pyrrhic Victory". I still need more gain and I have solved only a small amount of the problem.
