<p>[QUOTE="KrissB, post: 115032, member: 19162"]I have since converted an old Wii box into a DB-2 (1/4" soft copper tubing 5-3/4" legs on the DB-2) with reflector, shoved in my window facing North. Probably the best homemade antenna yet, I think my others were way over thought! lol</p><p></p><p>I am pulling in signals from Canada (70 miles north), Channels 35 miles south, Channels 35 miles east and west of me as well. It's gotta be the weather because I just picked up a channel I've been wanting since I started, but as it is south of me, the reflector is causing it some issues. It's one channel though, so I'm happy to wait it out til I get a DB-8 up and test it without a reflector! Oh the joys of making antenna's lol... Not that I don't like it, it just drains you when you over think it!!! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue :p" /> DB-48 anyone??? <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue :p" /></p><p></p><p>KrissB[/QUOTE]</p><p></p>
