The existing roof mounted antenna, 25' off the ground, with rotor, needs an upgrade.

Coordinates are 38.507034 / -120.510884

This cabin is in a forrested area, tall pine, and has one TV which I operate through a digital converter box
of an unknown brand.

From this form I planned to purchase the AD XG-91 with hopes of receiving channels 14-69, and
the YA-1713, for 7-13. I would like to know if this will pick-up the channels 4 & 5 that I may or not want.
The Channel Master Titan 7777 preamp, and new RG6 cable would complete the job.

Is this the correct package of parts?

I believe that you have the right antenna system, just the wrong location! LOL Boy, you are WAAAAY in the mountains, and even though the stations are not all that far away, the terrain is truly scary. All of the TV stations that you are looking for are in negative noise margin numbers, and any consistant reception is going to be VERY difficult.

Thanks for the response Tigerbangs.

The storm broken VHF antenna I will be replacing, receives channel 9 (6.1) 38-45 percent signal.
This is a good sign(?), channel 9 shows -12.6 NM dB on the chart, hope the 3850' ridge we're on
helps all the other signals.
