At 40 miles from the signals, you really need a 4228 and as much altitude as you can muster. Additionally, you really should have a rotator, as some of your Seattle stations lie far enough apart, (like KCPQ-DT FOX) that you won't get it with a 4228 without reaiming. Also, if you are using a Radio Shack, or other high-noise preamp, you should replace it with a good Channel Master Titan series, as the Radio Shack amps will swallow some weak stations and obscure them with their oen inherent noise.
