South San Jose, CA...Need some help

Hello All,
Need some help from the experts. Here is my assessment.
http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wr...5b94d1d62ecfa0


I currently have a what appears to be an all band UHF/VHF/FM antenna ~ 18ft above GL. It was on the house when I bought it. I can rotate the antenna anywhere from 290-360* and pull in 11-1 (NBC) full power. I can also pull in 7-1 intermittently (strong signal in the morning, broken signal in the evening) but that is about it. I have a roughly 50ft coax connection to the TV.

I tried a Clearsteam 4. It too pulled in 11-1 but not 7-1, or anything else for that matter. Any suggestion? I think I am in a pretty bad spot. Tall homes and trees down my LOS.

Thanks

Did you set your TV off of the "Cable" setting and on to the "Antenna" setting before scanning?

Wow, it physically hurts me to admit this but I just did eaxctly what you said, and it pulled down many more stations. I had thought I changed that. Thank you very much for the response.
