Watching TV now in digital - not working well. Probably 25% of the program is lost. Wife is about to skillet me. This is the strongest of stations in this area. We will loose several stations when they convert over. All of the CBS outlets gone on digital. We have good external antennas. But we"re in a fringe area. Ask if I"m happy with this situation.
In answer to your questions: Optimum height is as high as you can get, safely.
