Request for Help -- Northfield, OH

http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wr...838703b5d4e547


In an attempt to get away from Time Warner, I picked up the TiVo/Clearstream2 combo when it was on sale at Best Buy, and reused the j-mount (and cabling) that previously supported a dtv dish on top of my garage.

I pointed it towards the majority of towers located at 300deg, and those Cleveland stations come in great. However, my wife and daughter are extremely interested in WVPX & WEAO, which are in the opposite direction -- they're borderline at best.

If I swing the antenna around, I can get a great signal from the pair, but it appears to impact WYKC.

Is there a setup/antenna that would work for me? I've read about rotors, omnidirectionals, pre-amps, joining, but I'm not sure which way to go.

I'm currently testing on that single TiVo box, but most likely will end up driving 3 TVs when all is said and done.

Thanks in advance,

-ryan

Tv Antennas and Reception

I suggest a Winegard MS1000 antenna. And if 3 Tv's are connected use a balanced output 3 way splitter , cmc2003bh. Or a cmc2002h two way splitter for 2 Tv's. No splitter for one Tv.
