I finally got around to installing a new antenna at the new place in Pewaukee. I went to RadioShack on Saturday and bought a UHF only antenna ( http://www.radioshack.com/searchsku.asp?find=15-2160) and a tri-pod (http://www.radioshack.com/searchsku.asp?find=15-517).
It's the exact same setup I had in Greenfield. It worked great there and it appears to be working fine here in Pewaukee. I pointed it due East and all channels come in rock solid. Except for Fox6, that is. I get steady macro blocking. Well, I kinda figured that would be the case. I'm hoping when they finally go full power, then it will lock in also. Until then, I just have to settle for the network Fox feed on D*.
I could try tweaking the alignment a bit I guess. I pointed it East and that was it. Everything locked in but Fox. I didn't have any help at the time and it's a bit difficult getting up and down on a two story colonial, so I think I'll wait and see what happens after they power up. :D
