So I ordered one and installed it today and am somewhat dissapointed with the results. I can't get any watchable analog channels and only 1 digital channel locks on.

Meanwhile the Radio Shack antenna is pulling in about a dozen watchable channels. Obviously I missed something when choosing the 4228 or there's a problem with the antenna. I don't see any signs of damage on the antenna and have mounted it in the same spot that I was previously using for the RS antenna using the same cable and mast mounted pre-amplifier . The RS antenna has been relocated and is still working well even though it's using a cheap amplifier I bought at Wal Mart for $20.

At the moments I have them each on a sperate line. The RS is going into the antenna input on the TV and the CM is going into the digital tuner which connects to the TV via the audio/visual inputs. I've tried connecting the CM directly to the TV but like I said I don't get any watchable analog channels.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks. bob
