So I just now am installing the 7698. Have it on the roof, have not aimed it exactly yet and am getting same channels as with my RV winegard antenna that I was using temporarily ( a good sign I suppose ).

I am going to get the coax run from the 7698, as short as possible, with new RG6, then aim the antenna as best I can.

Couple questions:

1) does the antenna to ground cable/wire have any effect upon antenna performance?

2) What size ground wire do you use for the antenna?

3) How is it that my RV antenna, initially found 18 channels, but has never since been able to find more than 13 channels upon subsequent searches?

4) What indicates the need of a signal booster? (poor reception on a channel?)

Thanks again, Mike.
