Gary, I had no idea you have such a great FM antenna set up. I used to DX FM more. I got most of the Vancouver/Victoria stations heard & QSL'd in the 80s here on the coast. But with our horrible winds, I cannot keep a big yagi up. Even my small antenna gets busted up and I am taking it down to put the elements back on it. I gave up on big antennas for TV/FM years ago In Portland they worked fine as little wind on the West side and also in Hillsboro, but out here, forget it. Maybe a commercial grade yagi might do the trick, but with our winds, it would still take a beating. Also I would not get Vancouver/Victoria like I use to as Oregon/Southern Washington has too many new stations. I used to get most of them, CKLG FM 99.3, CBUF-97.7, CBU FM-105.7, CFRO-102.7. CFMI-101.1, great days. Now I get them on satellite. Nice signals, no fading and excelent quality, plus most of the Toronto FMers, and others from across Canada, Montreal, St. Johns, etc. But most are FM, even CKRW FM Whitehorse. I used to get the AM, but that was switched a couple years back. Star Choice is very keen on FM.
