I've done my research, but I'm out of ideas. I live 32 miles from Mt Mansfield on a heading of 244 (true) (West Glover). I can receive all the OTA digital signals from Mt Mansfield ok, except Channel 22-1. I get zero from it. I've tried my Radio Shack UHF antenna with a booster and an older VHF/UHF antenna that is higher but without a booster, and still can't pull it in. I did a plot with tvfool.com, and here are the readings:
Call Sign Real (Virt) Network Rx(dbm) My set readings
WVNY-DT 13 22.1 ABC -99.7 31
WPTZ-DT 14 5.1 NBC -101.7 38
WCAX-DT 53 3.1 CBS -103.3 84
WETK-DT 32 33.1 PBS - 106.4 53
WFFF-DT 43 44.1 FOX -112.9 40
I realize all these readings are "fringe", but because their digital, with a few exceptions, I receive a quality picture. Can't get WVNY at all!
I can't get to the higher antenna to install the booster until spring when I can get a bucket truck in to reach it. (fell off a roof once -- never again!)
Does anybody have any insights or suggestions on picking up 22-1 this far out?
