Last Thursday, 5/14/15, we met up with friends in a camping club. The weather was heavy overcast and we were about 80 miles from the nearest major city.
Four of the group had had the Jack, and we had our Winegard III with Wingman and a bent up wing thanks to a very strong headwind a few weeks ago. I do have an additional amplifier in the set-up.
Thursday everyone was happy with the channels from 80+ miles. Friday the sun came out and they lost all stations except for a couple from a nearer town. I still had around 30 channels with 2nd amplifier backed off to allow 14 dB attenuation.
They never did recover the other channels over the rest of the weekend. I am still debating whether to replace head with Winegard IV, or the new shield design that can also replace the old one.
The "birdie with a bad wing" still works fine.
