Hi Just want to update on my situation. My conclusion after different experiments is that my situation is definitely more of a multi-path than signal strength. Some data points: + I added a 5' mast to the existing one (which now makes it 10'). The signal didn't get weaker but I wasn't able...

Tower Guy, Just to make sure I understand ... You are saying in the vertical plane (taking a side view of the antenna), rotate it +12 degrees? If the pre-amp were overloading signal, why is it that none of the channels drop out? That's what I would have expected...

BrettTRay My roof is tile... As for the transformer, if I understand correctly, you are talking about the transformer for the antenna? - I'm just using the outdoor balun/matching transformer that came with the 4228...

Thanks for all your inputs... Here's my plan + I will get another 5' extension and elevate the antenna + The multipath interference theory sounds interesting - I will try the experiment of aiming away from the tower As for the indoor amp, I'm going to put that on the back-burner. An...

hi stuart628 I tried both an indoor antenna (it was a Philips model that had a built-in VHF/UHF amp - I had to turn the VHF down and turn the UHF up to max) as well as attic mounting the 4228... The signal strength is about the same, maybe a bit weaker but the main drawback was I couldn't get...

one more thing - the preamp is mounted on the mast itself so it's less than 2' from where the antenna picks off the signal. The power supply for the amp is farther away, inside closer to where the receiver is

Hi I have a situation that has me totally stumped. I'm hoping for some expert advice. I'm afraid that at this point, any further action I take is just "shot gunning" it and will eventually make things worst (or my sanity will go and not necessarily in that order). Here's some...
