Improved Reception
Thank you for the advice. I'm planning to wait until warm weather before implementing any changes as, of course, it's easier to work outdoors and to see the effect of full leaf coverage on the trees. I have a gable mount and one of the problems is that since the roof angle is somewhat shallow, the bottom brace is longish and not as rigid as I would like. Also, the ground below is sloping and without a suitable ladder I'm only able to work from the roof and can't reach the center of the lower brace to secure it better. Can you reccomend one or two antennas a little smaller and/or lighter than those that you mentioned in case I'm unable to stiffen the mount? By the way, during this weeks snow storm reception was excellent; I was even able to recieve the troublesome Channel 7!
