The locations of the second and third tvool reports are not the same as the first tvfool report.

2.5 miles difference of the west direction.

3.2 miles difference of the east direction.

1.1 miles difference of the south direction.

1.0 miles difference of the north direction.

The correct location is important for correct reception information.

Can make the difference of , Fuzzy Analog Tv reception or Clear Digital Tv reception.

Antenna height 25 to 40 feet.

For reception of CKCO-TV Analog channel 2 , CTV ONE.
And
CIII-DT Digital channel 26 , GTN.

Install a Winegard HD7082P antenna with , no antenna amplifier , aimed at about 356 degree magnetic compass direction.

For reception of CKNX-TV/CFPL-TV Analog channel 8 , CTV TWO.

Install a Winegard YA-1713 antenna with , no antenna amplifier , aimed at about 284 degree magnetic compass direction.

Here is how to aim antennas , http://www.kyes.com/antenna/pointing/pointing.html.

The 2 antennas are not connected together on to one coax.

The 2 antennas are separate antenna systems / coax all the way to the location of the Tv.

The 2 antenna coaxes will be connected to a , Remote control A/B antenna switch , http://www.mcmelectronics.com , #32-4425. , Saveandreplay has the same remote control A/B antenna switch.

Here are some places to buy antennas and etc. , http://www.saveandreplay.com , http://www.trentondistributors.com , http://www.canadapost.ca/shopper , http://www.amazon.ca , http://www.solidsignal.com , http://www.winegarddirect.com , http://www.amazon.com.

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

It is best to install the antennas at a location that has the least amount to no amount of obstructions of any type or kind in the directions of reception.

The Tv Must Channel Scan for the 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.
