After some more screwing around with antennas, I finally got my CM 4228 to work, I think I just had a bad connector on my RG6 so I replaced all the connectors and wa la!  It seems to work better than any other antenna I have tried so far given that I can't mount it too high above the room otherwise strong winds push it around.  SO now I am looking to get a tower to put it on, which will hopefully bring it up to a height that will increase the performance of it.  My question is:  I NEED TO KNOW THE PROPER WAY TO INSTALL A TOWER(i.e. how deep in the ground/concrete, how far from the house, etc.)  ANY TIPS/HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED.  OH, I am looking to get a tower if anyone has one they would like to get rid of.
