Well, I'm back. The Winegard failed as well.
I'm gonna return to a thread I started in 2017; you guys had
some great tips on how to test a coax for shorts, among other
things. I've got a voltmeter so now's the time to really test it.
But I also stumbled upon a YouTuber, Tyler, who goes by the
handle "Antenna Man". Turns out he dislikes both my pre-amps.
So if my test does not nail the coax, he suggested the CM-7777,
as that or a Radio Shiek model with adjustable gain may be a fix
for my difficult topography.
I also neglected to indicate my antenna: an Antennas Direct DB8e.
To test tomorrow.
