What tower is Fox 6's digital antenna on?

[RRP]

Ok. I'm a little slow on the uptake here.

After reading all the posts about Fox 6's antenna problems I'm still not exactly sure where the digital antenna is. I live in Shorewood and have clear view of the Estabrook Park tower from my house (less than two miles). Does this tower have the temporary digital antenna on it? Is the Estabrook park tower considered the main tower or the relay tower?

Thanks for your patience. I'm picking up aa channel master antenna today and need to know what direction to point the darn thing tonight.

Their antenna is on their STL/WX (studio to transmitter link and Weather Radar) tower at their studios on Hwy 57 and Brown Deer Roads.  You will notice on the west side of the tower at approx. 125-150' there is a long slotted array antenna on stand offs.

Thanks lummox.  My chances of receiving 6 has dropped significantly. Now about 8 miles from tower, southeast of it.

That also puts you off the side of their antenna pattern..in addition with channel 12's digital in the path between you and 6's digital you really have a problem.  Channel 6 on 33 digital with a couple hundred watts and channel 12 on 34 digital with over 500,000 watts.
