Don't give up the ship just yet. I also tried the CB 4228 and Antennacraft U8000 mounted on my roof at my location and they didn't work very well at all. In fact, the CB4221HD is outperforming both while sitting in my living room some 35 miles from the nearest signals and WITHOUT a pre amp.

My guess is that you have a problem with multipath just like I do. Try something like the Antennacraft MXU59 with a Titan 7777 pre amp from Channel Bastard. Or if you have a few more bux to spend look at the Antennas Direct 91XG. I use both of these antennas at my location and I am getting around 80 to 90% signal strength on all my channels in yellow and around 60 to 80% on average on a red signal showing a weak 2 edge signal with a strength of around 6 db. My guess is that either of these antennas with that pre amp will give you at least the top four channels on your TV Fool report.
