Thanks for the well-written response, Don_M. Reading the "deep fringe reception" recipe gives me something to think about. The key issue to resolve is a properly supported mast of sufficient height to get decent signals. I am asking some of my ham radio friends if they can recommend a mast installer. At this location, there are high winds at times, along with the yearly dump of 36" or more of snow. I realize that going with a paid solution like DirecTV is the easy way out, but paying $35/month is not something I want to do, just to receive the 4 networks via (what used to be) free TV.
