You are trying too hard to get the antenna up higher. What leads you to
believe the reception will be better with the antenna up there? Digital
and analog use the same UHF frequencies so why a "digital" antenna?

This is a good question, and you can check the calculations in advance
at "tvfool.com" Simply plug in your address and try out various antenna
heights to see if you can expect any improvement in your reception.
