WJWJ-DT REAL UHF digital channel 44 , virtual number (16.1) PBS is strong signal strength station and will be received no matter what direction a antenna is aimed.

The other Digital Tv stations/channels to the , south west and north east are weak and weaker signal strength.

For reliable reception of the 2 groups of Tv stations to the , south west and north east , I recommend 2 Separate antenna systems.

Antenna system #1.

Aim a Winegard HD7696P antenna at about 66 degree magnetic compass direction , north east.

Install a Winegard AP8700 preamp.

For 1 Tv connected use no splitter.

For 2 Tv's connected use a , HFS-2D , 2 way splitter.

For 3 Tv's connected use a , HFS-3D , 3 way splitter.

Antenna system #2.

Aim a Winegard HD7696P antenna at about 242 degree magnetic compass direction. South west.

Install a Winegard AP8700 preamp.

For 1 Tv connected use no splitter.

For 2 Tv's connected use a , HFS-2D , 2 way splitter.

For 3 TV's connected use a , HFS-3D , 3 way splitter.

The HD7696P antennas must be installed/mounted above the roof in such a manner that reception is not blocked by the roof or the house in the directions of , south west , north , north east.

Here are some strong and sturdy antenna mounts , http://www.ronard.com/909911.html , http://www.ronard.com/34424560.html , http://www.ronard.com/ychim.html , http://www.ronard.com.

Buy the ronard antenna mounts at solidsignal by typing the word ronard in the solidsignal search box.

Here are some places to buy antennas and etc. , http://www.solidsignal.com , http://www.amazon.com , http://www.winegarddirect.com.

Buy the HFS splitters at , http://www.hollandelectronics.com , or , http://www.solidsignal.com.

_______________________________________________________

Antennas Systems 1 and 2 are Separate all the way to the location/s of the Tv/s and will not be connected together on to 1 coax.

At each Tv location will be a Remote control A/B coax antenna switch.

_______________________________

As always , trees and tree leaves do a real fine job of reducing or blocking Tv reception and so do buildings and other obstructions including your own house.

It is best to install antennas at a location that has little to no obstructions of any type or kind in the directions of reception including your own house.

The Tv/s Must channel scan for the Digital Broadcast Tv Channels , sometimes named the 'Air Channels' or 'Antenna Channels' in the Tv setup menu because the Tv transmissions travel through the air from the transmitting antenna to the receiving antenna.

DO NOT channel scan for cable tv channels.
