[QUOTE="ATL Royals, post: 151438, member: 100750"]That's an interesting concept. I hadn't thought of a "partial reflector." I have a house in the mountains that some folks here have suggested I'm going to need height and a big directional antenna to pick up Chattanooga. Most stations are 2Edge on [URL="http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=29&q=id%3d513450db4a2cfd"]TVFool[/URL], so a reflector is basically a requirement (or so I am informed). Still, I don't want to miss the other stations in the area that are off-direction that a reflector could eliminate. For example, I'm picking up ION and Univision by pointing my cheapy directional antenna south, but the nearby PBS station (located in the same direction as Chattanooga) isn't readable. Is a partial reflector really a good idea? Could it preserve my access to ION while I aim for the Big 4 networks? Or am I so far out and behind so many hills that I'm kidding myself? When I finally build my setup, I'll come back and post it here![/QUOTE]
