Installing Multiple Antennas

[bowens]

I had a CM4221 4 bay antenna at my house when I moved in. A few months ago I replaced it with a 4228 and greatly increased signal strength on 3 of my 4 channels. The other is in another direction. Here are my antennaweb results:

* yellow - uhf WGFL-DT 28.1 CBS HIGH SPRINGS FL 92° 16.7 28
* red - uhf WUFT-DT 36.1 PBS GAINESVILLE FL 81° 28.1 36
* red - uhf WCJB-DT 20.1 ABC GAINESVILLE FL 106° 27.7 16
* blue - uhf WOGX-DT 51.1 FOX OCALA FL 124° 36.3 31

The first 3 are pretty much due east of me. WCJB is a little off but the the signal is strong enough that I still get it in the high 90's. The problem is with FOX, WOGX. I only get signals in the 60's to 70's. Right now this is not really a problem because they're not broadcasting HD, digital yes, but HD no. But they are supposed to be up and running in HD by early Feb. Would it be possible to combine 2 antennas onto one line? I would keep the 4228 aimed where it is but aim the 4221 at FOX. Would I get a lot of ghosting with them like this?

WUFT-DT is really on channel 36, not 31. Aim the 4228 directly at WOGX-DT and the 4221 at 94 degrees. Insert a channel 31 Jointenna between the 4228 and the 4221.

Sorry, about the typo. I backspaced too far when I was trying to get it formatted right and put in a 1 instead of a 6. Thanks for the help though. I might give this a try.
