Agree with tigerbangs
As confirmation of tigerbangs recommendations, my daughter recently purchased a house in Florence, AL which is outside the Huntsville service area at 70.6 miles. With a 4228 hanging on a nail in the attic (pointed due East) and a Spartan 0064 amp she receives the following analog Huntsville stations; 19 and 31 VG, 54 fair to good (some visible snow) and 48 fair (visible snow). They are all watchable on her 13” kitchen TV which is also slaved off the RF output of her D*TV receiver. As you drive around the rural AL countryside you see a lot of 4228’s and not much else. No info on Huntsville DT stations yet.
I live Cobb county (Atlanta, GA) with a RS UV-90 in the attic with a cheap amp to blast thru the D*TV receiver, VCR and 30 feet of RG59 to my kitchen TV. Analog reception was VG to excellent (a few ghosts on 5 and intermittent interference on 11). Recently replaced it with Toshiba 26HL66 LCD set. After reorienting the antenna to point directly at 2 (DT39), which degraded analog reception on a few channels, 2 (DT39) is 85%, 11 (DT10) is 94% and everything else is upper 90’s to 100%. The 26HL66 is a great set, BTW.
