Good day...

Santa (more often referred to as wife) has approved an HD antenna

http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wr...cc49f11d078b97

Zip 78669
PCT International CM2016 Channel Master Television Antenna
Single TV Samsung plasma
Targeted stations N.E. KVUE to KEYE

I have two mounting options...

15ft to 25ft Ridged conduit, a 50ft cable run (preferred). The flag pole jpg is taken facing S.W. The background is not in LOS.

Or, a telescoping mast with three guide wires, which currently has a small wireless internet radio. This would be close to 200 ft cable run. It's current height must be 40ft. There's another ring for a second set of guide wires. I think it could go another 10ft.

If you can help, it would be greatly appreciated.

KEYE-DT REAL UHF Digital channel 43 , virtual number (42.1-2) CBS and Telemundo.

KVUE-DT REAL UHF Digital channel 33 , virtual number (24.1-2) ABC and Estrella Tv.

Are both at 118 degree magnetic compass direction , along with the rest of the group of Tv stations in that direction , South East.

I recommend aim the CM2016 antenna at about 118 degree magnetic compass direction.

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

The Digital Tv stations/channels in the Green and Yellow reception zones of the tvfool Current Plus Pending Applications Included radar report plot and channel list are strong signal strength.
______________________________________________

KAKW channel 13 Univision.
KBVO channel 27 MyNetwork.
KCWX channel 5 MyNetwork and This Tv.
Are Strong Signal Strength and will also be received.
______________________________________________

No preamplifier is required.

For 1 Tv connected use no splitter.

For 2 Tv's connected use a common simple 2 way splitter.

For 3 Tv's connected use a common simple 3 way splitter.

You can mount the CM2016 on the guy wired pole or a roof mount will also work.

Here are some roof top type antenna mounts , http://www.ronard.com/909911.html , http://www.ronard.com/34424560.html , http://www.ronard.com/ychim.html , http://www.ronard.com.

Buy the ronard antenna mounts at solidsignal.com by typing the word ronard in the solidsignal search box.

Here are some places to buy , http://www.solidsignal.com , http://www.amazon.com , http://www.channelmasterstore.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 including your own house.

It is best to install the CM2016 antenna at a location that has the least amount to no amount of obstructions of any type or kind in the directions of reception including your own house.

The Tv/s Must Channel Scan for the Digital 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.
