I'm not sure why you are not getting WNED as well as you should but I suspect your antenna is not good for channel 43? Do you get WIVB (real channel 39/virtual 4.1)?

Thanks David,

The model is a Digiwave ANT7285. Regarding the positioning, I haven't been able to bring a compass up to the attic to measure. I just bought one today and I plan to go up this weekend and position it around 170-180 degrees. At present, based on my estimates, it should be close to that bearing.

I get WIVB crystal clear all the time. Even when most of the other American stations are sketchy in hot weather or storms, WIVB is dependably strong.

I can't help but wonder about attic gremlins as well. If I position the antenna at one end of the attic I get no American stations, but if it is positioned at the other end I get 35-45 channels.
