Thanks rick, I know wet wood can conduct.
This actual piece is from an antique book shelf and is bone dry. I would bet if I checked it with my megger it would have insulating properties as good as PVC.
I'm not sure if I should start a new thread but I'm using the uhf portion on a combination unit I cut apart and it works pretty well. I'm 35 miles away and there is terrain and trees blocking the line of site to the transmission towers. It seems when it's windy, and the trees are moving I get occasional pixilation and less than optimal signal strength.
I have the antenna on a pole as high as I dare go and it is supported very well with guy wires so I know it is not moving on the wind.
My question is: Would one of these flat bay type or the Gray/Hoverman give better results?
I do have a CM7777 amp on the antenna and coax inside. It will not even display without the amp.i normally see mid 70% on the tv signal meter.
Should I start a new thread with the data report?
Thanks,
Dan
