Thank you Teleview and GroundUrMast,

I'll go with the ANT751 for starters and give that a try. Luckily, at my address immediately south and east are free of trees with a clear view of the hills in the distance over the border into Idaho. Northeast is a different matter. Plenty of trees surround the front of the property and block the view.

If I have to put up a VHF beam, this may be the only time someone might be thankful for trees blocking a signal on this forum, lol. The aforementioned trees might help me out by knocking down KXLY's VHF 13 adjacent signal.

The apartment I'm renting comes with cable, but, it's standard definition AND they don't carry the Idaho PBS. Go figure!

Just a curious question - if the ANT751 were pointed right at KUID, is the antenna's VHF performance strong enough perhaps to grab it? I ask because I've read people giving glowing reviews of the 751 for 55 miles on VHF.

Thanks again!
