Thanks for the quick responses! I've read about both the Winegard 7694P and ANT751 but had no clue whether or not they'd be good for my situation.

The one thing about the 7694P is it's size. At about 80 inches in length, two-thirds of it would end up sticking off the back of my roof where the mast is currently mounted. And from that location with it only being about 16 feet off the ground, I'm afraid it would be a bit obtrusive. Also that size may not be doable at a different residence in the near future. Here's a (stupid) question: is it possible to "fold" the 7694P boom length down in size and still use it? ...I had to ask.

The ANT751 at less than half the size of the 7694P is more manageable. Splitting the signal for only 2 TVs, would I be able to get pretty comparable performance out of the 751 as to the 7694P, or would there be too much signal degradation? Would I need to take extra measures to get the ANT751 to perform reasonably? Are there any other antennas I should consider with good performance that are a bit smaller in size?

Thanks again for your patience, and especially your help.
