I have been trying to find an electrical contractor to replace/install a new exterior antenna.. with little luck with out big co$t (come on $500.00 for what should be about two/three hours work is too much!) ..


I don't understand why I am having so much trouble? I have been trying to find help for close to two years!


Does anybody here know a dish installer, roof installer, tree trimmer, or even a fireman (as my current antenna was installed by an off duty fireman who also sold home security systems close to 25 years ago!) that likes to climbs ladders ..and would not mind doing a small amount of crawl space crawling to run new RG6 cable from the outside wall through the utility room to living room.. 


The toughest part of the project is removing the current 20 year old VHF antenna and adding another standard extension pole to help the new antenna to get above my west side neighbors barn/garage.


The biggest issue is the fact that digital UHF signals are more direct and have sharp drop off when blocked, where the older analog VHF signals would pass through objects.  Which is why I have to get above my neighbors two story garage/barn building.


-IF- you know somebody please have them 'PM' me a contact message.
