Hi All, if you look at the end of 2010 you'll see some posts where I was working with various antennas. Since I've started here's a few updates. All subjective tests using CM7777 at the top and 100' of RG-6. With a 3 ' patch between antenna and pre-amp

1. I'm in the northeast end of Guelph at 40 FT and have run up a number of different antennas to test with. The hardest stations to receive here are 57.1 and omni 1 and omni 2. I'm testing with the CN tower only at this time. Please note: I do receive a number of other HD signals, but these are the toughest.
( have yet to see global on 41.1 but analog is strong as a horse here!)

1. CM 4221 Pretty good 57.1 or omni 1 or 2 very spotty but good in cold weather.
2. CM 4228 Expected it to pick up the shortcomings again from this location, however this antenna was worse!!! (shouldn't be but very poor no 57.1 at all)
3. Digiwave 2190 built well, could receive omni 1 and 2 in toronto no channel 57.
4.Digiwave 2190 built pretty well. WOW works well. receive omni 1 perfect onmi 2 perfect. 57.1 is spotty with pixillation but went from no signal strength to 30 - 35 %

I'm currently getting ready to rig up a XG91 (purchased 2 on Sunday in London) hopefully installed at the end of the week.
It's assembled and in the garage ready to go.
Providing the roof is dry and I can get it mounted and positioned I should be able to post up on Saturday.

Anyhow, I know there are a few in Guelph but not many posting up.
So here's some thoughts
