Trying to get a station from another market

[phdeez]

Here is my tvfool analysis.

I am looking to pick up 1 station "outside" of my local market. NFL Blackout has made it where I am unable to watch Bucs games from my local market (WOFL Fox). I am trying to get a signal from WOGX (sister station to WOFL- just in Ocala). The problem is WOGX is 81mi away and -12.5db NM. I am not trying to get any other stations, just WOGX. I realize a directional antenna is what I'm looking for, and someone on another forum suggested either the Winegard HD9032 or Winegard HD-8800. I would like to confirm those suggestions with the address analysis above... A DIY option would also be nice....

Thanks!

If WTMO, either analog or digital, is currently on the air on channel 31 from about 10 miles away, you can forget about receiving WOGX as it also transmits on UHF 31.

WOGX is showing both Adjacent channel and Co-channel warning. Co-channel WTMO is local and strong. Adjacent channels WBCC and WTTA are also far stronger then WOGX. You will not receive WOGX at your location.

Well, that is a shame. I was hoping compass direction would have more of an impact (since the other channels near WOGX were in different directions), but I guess not.

I guess I have to continue to suffer the ridiculous NFL Blackout rules for now...

Thank you both for your analysis.

Well, you CAN watch the home games if:

1) The Bucs sell out in time

or

2) You drive 30-50 miles towards Ocala and tailgate in a parking lot.

Although both of those options are reasonable... I've already committed (in my head) $100-200 to get this working so I think I'll just buy a slingbox and install it at my mom's house in Ocala...
