Well people often I gues kid around with me, because I have so many outdoor antennas, I have 2 antennas on one pole here at my home place, plus I got a sat. dish, plus a antenna for my wireless DSL now. But I tell them how many stations I get off the air and none can believe it ;)... At my secound place out in the country, I have 2 poles & 2 antennas, one for TV one for FM. I just wonder how many others do like I do?.

i used to have 3 antennas on one pole back behind my house, one was a TV antenna, one an FM and the other for a scanner, took the TV and scanner antennas off, i actually just raised the pole up by about 6ft today, before i had this antenna i had a 3 wire dipole set up exactly like power lines, complete with glass insulators on the pole, took it down though because birds liked to sit on the wires and being speaker wire, they kept breaking<P ID="signature">______________

Where I used to live, I had 2 antennas on one pole. Both were for TV. One location I was getting 3 & 12 from Champaign IL and a translator on 13 from Ogden Dunes IN. When I moved the antennas up to the roof, I got 12 from Milwaukee WI every night and occasionally 4 from Milwaukee & 55 from Kenosha WI (transmitted from their tower in Franksville WI, and was only a 500' tower). I used to get 18 & 24 from Milwaukee until LeSea Broadcasting put translators in Gary & Valparaiso IN. Where I live at now, I haven't had the time to get my antennas setup to where I can get Milwaukee & South Bend stations. The antenna I use now is one that truck drivers use. I get with it besides Chicago stations, I get mostly 16 & 22 from South Bend Indiana. They have fringe lines in Gary, so that's why they come in most of the time, and 28 will soon have fringe lines in Gary once they go ND on 28 since their digital channel is on 58, and they're knocking off the LP station on 28 in Chicago.
