elevations

I spent some time and was able to locate the above sea level elevation for channel 10, KOLR in Springfield. The hole we are in is approx. 50 feet in elevation lower than the transmitting antenna.

This makes sense to me since I get a decent signal with a very poorly designed homemade antenna as does my neighbor with his Lava antenna. Springfield is in a relatively level area so without spending my data package to look at each transmitter, I would guess roughly similar elevations for the other stations.

I want to thank you for your reply. I don't thing the heroic measures will be in my immediate future., however using the two antennas mentioned seems a good place to start along with raising my antennas to the roof with a five foot tripod and ten foot of mast and some careful aiming. That increases my antenns height about twenty feet above where my antenna is now.
