KRWG-DT Real Digital channel 23 , virtual number (22.1) PBS channels.

KWRG is Very Strong Strength , is LOS=Line Of Sight , and only 6.5 miles.

This means the signal strength is Very Strong.

Recommend do not use a signal amplifier , the signal amplifier will overload and make reception worse.

____________________________

The mountains to the , South East , South , South West , are impeding/reducing reception of the more distant Tv stations to the , South East.

__________________

All the receivable Digital Broadcast Tv stations/channels are UHF channels.

I recommend a Big UHF channels 14 thru 51 antenna to receive as much signal as possible of the more distant Tv stations to the , South East.

Install a Channel Master CM4228HD UHF antenna.

Aim the CM4228HD UHF antenna at about 154 degree magnetic compass direction.

Here is how to aim antennas , http://www.kyes.com/antenna/pointing/pointing.html.

This next information is Important Information.

The Antennas job is to receive the signal , not a amplifier.

A amplifier can increase signal strength

A amplifier does not receive signal.

Your reception situation is , more signal must be received of the distant Tv stations to the , South East , because the mountains are impeding/reducing signal strength.

Your reception situation is UHF channels 14 thru 51.

A Big UHF antenna receives more signal.

A smaller antenna receives less signal.

_____________________________________________________

The next information is Important Information.

Trees and tree leaves , plants and plant leaves , have a Negative effect on Tv reception and so do buildings and other obstructions in the directions of reception.

For your reception situation it is Important that no obstructions are in the way the direction of reception.

You can not cut down the mountains.

So must do what you can to avoid obstructions that you can control in the direction of reception.

_____________________________________________________

The following information is a set up to Prove reception by reducing connections that will reduce reception.

Do the best you can to get reliable reception with a Big UHF antenna.

Have only 1 Tv connected , No splitters or any thing else that will reduce reception.

Recommend Run a NEW coax from the CM4228HD UHF antenna Direct to 1 Tv only.

Digital Tv Tuners can develop - Digital Glitches that are not cleared out with simple channels scans.

Do a Double Rescan , http://www.dtv.gov/rescan.html.

The following information is a Test type reception situation and IS Not A Magic Pill.

A Winegard HDP-269 preamp has high overload resistance.

The HDP-269 Is Not a Substitute for getting the best reception First with a Big UHF Antenna as directed.

The HDP-269 can be tried and see what happens.

The current Tv channels that are being transmitted and received in , USA , Canada , Mexico , are.

VHF low band channels 2 thru 6.

VHF high band channels 7 thru 13.

UHF band chaqnnels 14 thru 51.
___

Your location has UHF band channels 14 thru 51.

Use a Big UHF antenna for reception.
