No, because that would require running cables through the wall to do so. I'm unwilling to do that myself, nor can I afford to pay someone to do it. If I was to do that, I would have just paid someone to put something on the roof. The entire reason I'm doing ANT111 in the first place is because of lack of funds to install a proper roof antenna.

That close... yes. Are the picture frames metal? If so, they can affect the antenna also. Metal within 4' will affect the UHF signal quite a bit, For signals on real VHF channels, it's nice if you could keep metal objects 10' or more from the antenna.
The smaller of the picture frames is metal. The larger one I don't remember - I think it's plastic. However, there's a decent amount of metal in the controller basket. I'll give that a try tonight and see if it affects anything. Thanks for the suggestions.
