I finally got my DB8e out of the living room and installed on the roof. At this point with both antennas pointing at Mt. Wilson 91* true north with a slight angle between the two, I can get all the channels I want from that direction.
One of the reasons I bought the two antenna system is so that I can also get KEYT at 291*. When the antenna was in the house I could get KEYT when I pointed the antenna at it (can't recall if I could get it using just one side or not). But with the antenna on the roof I cannot seem to get KEYT with one antenna. Also, when I use one of the antennas to point to KEYT I lose a few of the weaker stations from Mt. Wilson.
The stations that I watch from Mt. Wilson are (virt.) in the order they are on the analysis: 4.1, 7.1, 9.1, 5.1, 11.1, 13.1, 50.1, 58.1, 2.1. When I point an antenna toward KEYT 9.1, 28.1 and 50.1 fall off.
When I had the antenna in the house I could use the signal strength meter on the TV and flip through the channels to optimize the direction of each antenna. With the antenna outside I'm unable to do that. Is there a handheld signal strength meter I can get at a reasonable cost that has a tuner in it so I can tweak the antenna and see what each channel is doing in real time?
I appreciate any help I can get. I attached a picture of the install FWIW.
