Agreed! (Will a big pump get water out of a dry hole?)

If you have already paid for the MS2002 and can't return it, you'll obviously want to try to make it work... Your best chance will be outside, clear of objects that reflect or block the desired signals. I am always afraid that an omni style design will suffer due to multi-path, resulting in unstable reception. If the rabbit ears have trouble, expect an omni to have trouble.
