Might as well pop for the SensarPro signal strength meter and amp. Lets you rotate antenna to peak the signal and amplify or attenuate your signal.
Can make a big difference.
AMong other things the Sensar Pro is a signal strength meter that makes aiming easier..
it has 3 buttons. Starting from the OFF (Park cable selected) position tap the top button one time
SCAN mode it will seek out the strongest digital carrier and display the carrier channel number (NOT necessarly the station number. your TV figures that out later) and strength. You can then peak.. Generally TV transmitters are all close so that should work less you are too close to the towers.
Next mode I forget what they call it but you can page through ALL the carriers it found and choose one to peak on if you wish (uses the other two buttons)
Next is manual YOU use use the two (Up/down) buttons to pick the carrier channel. I often use this mode when I know what to peak on
Next is GAIN.. adjustable. I am guessing "10" is the same as the old wall plate. you can make it stronger (up to 20) or weaker (NOTHING).
Next is VOLUME (You know about those annoying sattelite beeps. It does the same thing) for use when you can not see it and rotate the antenna at the same tine.. Mine is set to ZERO.
IT added several stationns and greatly redued aining time.
