Those coordinates are from Rabbitears.info. I zoomed in on his house and put the marker exactly where the antenna is located. He's using a cheap-looking antenna, something like this. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Ematic-HD...ll&athena=true
The other coordinates may have been off. Not sure. Sorry if they were.
Thank you for the new coordinates. That location is a little further North and on higher ground; 1007 ft instead of 974 ft ground elevation. This is the signal report:

The signals look a little better.

People that are not forum members can't see attachments or the images in a post that are attachments first. I have to use an image host to show the image like this from imgur:

OMG.. I thought one would need a large yagi or bay antenna. Even if that works they have been known to go bad...having to go back up there..
