RTI Installer:
Have you ever tried stacking two CM4228s and pointing
them in the same direction? (rather than in a
"V" as discussed above)? Would this increase
the gain of a digital UHF signal significantly?
I'm 50 miles from the transmitter and the CM7775
preamp I tried with my single CM4228 in the attic
did not help. The antenna is correctly aimed at
the transmitter per the signal meter in my STB.
If you think stacking might help, would the procedure
to connect the two antennas be the same as you
gave above?
Thanks.

Sure I have, I have even put up multiple 4228's in different parts of on attic to catch reflections off of other buildings, kind of a pain in the ass and a gamble with your time versus getting paid if it does not work. The more antennas you put up the more gain, but there is also an increase in unwanted interference, grounding is critical. If your intention is to feed more than one set top box from the same antenna array, you will also need to use a distribution amplifier with adequate bandwidth to farm out your signal.
