Tv Antennas and Tv Reception

ALL antennas will be mounted above the roof.
This recommendation is based on the Current Plus Pending Applications Included of the tvfool radar plot for digital Tv stations/channels.

For the easy to receive stations to the , north west , north , north east . And the VERY STRONG WGCB-DT channel 30 IND. that is to the south east .
Install a ANT751 antenna aimed at about 30 degree magnetic compass. Here is how to aim antennas , http://www.kyes.com/antenna/pointing/pointing.html.



For reception of the VERY WEAK Tv stations/channels the south , WBAL-TV channel 11 NBC , WJZ-TV 13 channel NBC , WMAR-TV channel 38 ABC , WNUV-DT channel 40 CW , WBFF channel 46 FOX .
Install a Winegard HD7698P antenna aimed at about 195 degree magnetic compass. Here is how to aim antennas. http://www.kyes.com/antenna/pointing/pointing.html.
Do not use a preamplifier with the HD7698P antenna , a preamp will overload because of the Very Strong WGCB and the over loaded preamp will be the cause of bad or no reception of other channels.

Do Not use a preamplifier with the ANT751 or HD7698P antennas.

The ANT751 and HD7698P antennas will be 2 Separate antenna systems and Separate coax systems all the way to the TV.
The 2 Separate antenna and coax systems will go all the way to the Tv and connect to a remote control A/B antenna switch and the output of the the A/B antenna switch will connect to The Tv. http://www.radioshack.com , # 15-1968 , or , http://www.mcmelectronics.com/ , # 32-4425 .
