Then I recommend a Winegard HD7698P mounted above the roof so the antenna has a good shot at the Tv transmitters in the direction of , 347 true - 353 degree magnetic compass. This Tv antenna will supply signal to one or two Tv's.

The current hoa will not allow that and only suprisingly allows cable dishes or cable itself. I am not concerned with every channel that far out but just receiving the green channels would be a great addition. Looking at the information provided

Channel: 7 (7.1)
Network: PBS
Maximum ERP: 18.000 kW
Coordinates: 30.281074 -81.569813

Channel: 32 (30.1)
Network: Fox
Maximum ERP: 1000.000 kW
Coordinates: 30.281074 -81.569813

Why I get 7.1 at a lower power than fox is puzzling. As I am no expert I can only assume like you previously noted that it can be due to reflections. Wondering if the signal functions like a sine wave and at that different signal length it causes issues.. just what ifs in my head..

best bet for me is something up in the attic as the attic is high enough I can stand up in there.. however is it typical to lose 1-3db off of the antenna rating? Regular wood framed home with a shingle roof
