Here are the stations that I should be able to get:
yellow - uhf WATC-DT 41.1 REL ATLANTA GA 302° 9.3 41
yellow - uhf WPXA-DT 14.1 i ROME GA 322° 28.8 51
red - uhf WAGA-DT 5.1 FOX ATLANTA GA 189° 14.2 27
red - uhf WATL-DT 36.1 MNT ATLANTA GA 190° 13.6 25
red - vhf WXIA-DT 11.1 NBC ATLANTA GA 188° 17.0 10
red - uhf WTBS-DT 17.1 TBS ATLANTA GA 190° 13.6 20
blue - uhf WSB-DT 2.1 ABC ATLANTA GA 194° 16.7 39
blue - vhf WGTV-DT 12 PBS ATHENS GA 149° 16.7 12
blue - uhf WGCL-DT 46.1 CBS ATLANTA GA 191° 13.6 19
blue - uhf WUVG-DT 34.1 UNI ATHENS GA 190° 13.6 48
blue - uhf WUPA-DT 43.1 CW ATLANTA GA 193° 18.1 43
blue - uhf WHSG-DT 44.1 TBN MONROE GA 193° 18.0 44
violet - uhf WPBA-DT 21.1 PBS ATLANTA GA 188° 16.8 21
I am a Dish Network subscriber but don't have visibility to the 129 satellite to receive my locals in HD. Therefore I am trying to use the wineguard antenna that I have left over from my Voom account. It is the largest antenna that Voom supplied, sorry I don't have the model number right now. Anyway, what I am finding is that I am only receiving 11.1 and 34.1 and both of those have a variable signal strength that runs from about 50 to the mid 60s. Right now my dish is pointed due south.
My question is, do I get a different antenna or try moving this one to get better reception? I have a roof mount right now. The antenna is basically attached to a sattelite dish pedestal. If I want to try to find the sweet spot, how do I do that without drilling my roof full of holes?
Physically my home is surrounded by a mature hardwood forest to the East, South and West. Furthermore, I have a ridge that is about 20 to 40 feet taller than my roof to the South.
Any advice, help that you could provide would be much appreciated.
