So given the results I posted, if you were in my shoes, which model would you hang on the roof?

Can you focus your present antenna directly at the FOX tower? That might be the place to start to see if you get an uninterrupted signal. I'm thinking you won't, though. I think there are terrain issues that no antenna will overcome.

If it does come in better, the ABC station may be a casualty. It's worth a try before spending any money.

Will do. I plan to smack some snow out of my way and hump it up to the top of the roof in an hour of so. If I make it back down without pulling the old slide off / ground smack, I will post the results of my adventure.

One more thing. You might knock on the doors of some neigbors and see what reception they are getting. Someone may have already tried some of this stuff.

Another solid piece of advise. That could save me a lot of time as well.

Heh, I will be doing my best to avoid a "slide off." I don't bounce as well as I did 10 years ago.

I look forward to the following post of Bwana unloading the gun at the dish while most are running for cover and the wife is shaking her head dialing direct tv for a replacement dish~
