FCC, can not remember the url, website puts Village of Springdale at 65 miles from the Bithlo antenna farm near Orlando. They suggest a 30’ height for strong reception. I get “moderate “ reception at 25 feet with $25 yagi antenna, with amplifier, I bought from Amazon four years ago. I think the latest version of that antenna is up to $35 or $40 now. Be sure to ground your antenna, mast, and the wire lead in case of lightning strike.

The center of the antenna is 20' from the ground. It has a nearby clear view toward the Orlando antennas. I'm also using the CM-7779HD PriAmp.

[QUOTE=MikeVillages;2234856]Thank you for the information. Boston's antenna farm is in Newton.

American Tower leased space on the tower my stations antenna was on. It was located on Chestnut street in Newton. Not all tv/radio were at that site but a majority were in Newton not far from each other.If you search google maps satellite view you can see them.

Some station were broadcasting from the top of the Hancock.

Until the headends hooked our transmitter up to fiber. They took our OTA signal.
