Home Radio Road

Which tuner to get and getting the most from it. Thank God, for the radio!

Re: Try running the FM6 vertical. It seems to me that local conditions are telling you something

Can't do that - the roof supports are at various angles and locations, such that even horizontal, I have to mount the FM6 only 2 feet off the attic floor, barely miss the supports in one area. If vertical (elements vertical, boom horizontal) rotation will be severely restricted. It would be possible to rotate from NW to N only, though. Or S to SE, take your pick. Great idea, though.
BTW, forgot to say, the roof and attic walls are non-metallic, vinyl siding. A lot of wires snaking all over the attic floor, though. There is no electrically clear area to mount the antenna because of that. Really sloppy wiring, they just lay on the rafters, running directly from one place to the other, no design at all.
