Well, I picked up the rca tvpramp1r today, also picked up a compression tool and a dozen connectors. I also have a coax grounding lug to install. Heading down in the morning to give this a try. The y -107 13 won't be here in time for tomorrow so I'm going to set up the mast, rotor, db8, amp and new coax and see what I get. I might add that the rca pre-amp was $21.00 with a $2.00 rebate at Menards.
If I get some good tv on one set, I'll see what it will take to try another one in the bedroom.
Cheers, Bob.
