Ok, I believe you. You are really close to the stations so outside should work on everything.

What is blocking our signal with the RCA ANT111 is beyond me. You might have a lot of metal inside the walls. I have seen that here locally with a guy that lives in an apt in Gainesville FL. Almost no signal for him inside.

Well I said west because that takes your house of out the way. You can go up on the east side if you clear the roof with a pole (also called a mast).

Putting one east side means probably about 15 ft up. It would take less coax, so that is good.

If you are putting it up on a pole (east side means less coax to run making it easier) I would go ahead and buy a HBU22.

So if you plan to put it on the east side, we need to know how high the peak of the roof is then we need to make you a shopping list.

So are you good with a drill and a wrench? You said you were doing this yourself.
