Yeah I though about that. If I could wipe out ch 27 completely that would be great. However, like with most other TV equipment, I cannot seem to find a REASONABLY priced single channel filter. I also don't think that this is the issue with Channel 10.

It sounds like you have picked the best location possible for your antenna.
Not too many left; the CM9521A is popular, but it doesn't have long-term reliability. You would have to step up to a ham rotator like the Hy-Gain AR40 or Yaesu 450.

The CM seems to have WAY to many issues. I DON'T want to have to climb back up onto the roof in the dead of winter to fix a bad rotor. The Yaesu looks good, but hard to justify the $$$ to my other half.. This adventure was justified on the basis of cost. If I start spending too much on equipment, she will demand the cable back
I looked at the link to your equipment. Nice meter! I'm sure it is out of my price range, but just for curiosity, what does a device like that run these days?
