Tv antennas and Tv reception

Ok with a 200 foot tower , I would use a Winegard HD7698P antenna and a Winegard AP 8275 preamp. And a Channel Master CM 7521A rotor. The signal strength for reliable reception is 0 NM(dB). The gain of the HD7698P is 10 to 14 dB. This will just ad enough gain for the weak channels of minus -0.5 thru minus - 9.7 to make them about plus 9 to about 0 NM(dB). The AP8275 preamp will provide the amplification to move the Tv signals through the 200 plus feet of coax. The Tv stations down to KOLR 10 CBS will be received. Even so expect to see signal drop outs on the weak channels.
