Thanks for the quick response GroundUrMast. I did check the signal with the antenna in the attic and got great signal strength through a 100' of coax, I was able to view all the networks I'm wanting. What I have now is about the same length of cable run, but I've connected to the existing satellite cable runs from the previous install. So now there is a connector where I tapped into the existing wiring, the connection to the splitter, then to the receiver. That's were I get 21 channels, with only 2 or 3 that are viewable. With the preamp, I "get" more channels but still the same 2 or 3 that are watchable. I'm not opposed to an outdoor antenna, but I want to exhaust all my options for the attic install first. That and the antenna I bought won't last long outdoors.
So after all that, if I hear that I don't have any reasonable options for improving the signal strength from my attic (I've tried several locations and aiming angles in the attic), what outdoor antenna would you suggest?
Thanks again for the help.
Jim
