Well I put the antenna up on the roof with a new rotor. Seems to work pretty good on vhf. I was able to pull in many long distance stations on vhf. I pulled in CTC and CBC from the Sault. About 150 or 160 miles away. Not the greatest but I could see and hear them. I will post some pics soon. Now is the time to route the cables. The tower is in the center of the house. What do I do? Run the cable down the roof or run it through a convenient hole in the roof cap? My concern is grounding. If it were near the end of the roof I would just run it down the side but being in the center I am not keen on have that cable laying up on the roof looking stupid. It would be great to come in the roof cap, into the garage where I can run it where ever I want in the house easily.
