I got the system working again! Yea. I kept reading posts from years ago to get ideas of something that might fail besides the pre amp. One guy had a post from like 10 years ago and said that his inserter burnt out. Well I had some equipment in storage from my mother in laws system I bought her years ago - in that box of stuff was a new inserter. Went into the attic swapped them out and got Fox at 100, CBS 90, PBS 85 etc. Just in time for the Washington Oregon game tomorrow!
I was just about to order a new Pre Amp and telescoping mast but now I will wait until next spring/summer when weather is nice and warm sunny etc.
Thank you for all your help and feedback OTAFAN. It is much appreciated
