Jason, I'm using 4 VIC-100s inside, under a flat concrete roof in my single story office. Tracking 8 satellites on each receiver module on both my CommSync units. Each one connected to Rx via a coiled up 50 ft length of RG-59.
Yours should work OK. What cable and what length are you planning on using? Temp specs on my antennae are -40 to +85C operating which is typical for this type of product. Don't think it gets that hot in Houston!!

I was planning on mounting one of those Lucent 26dB antennas in my attic, and was wondering what the signal strength would be like through the asphalt shingles. If I do that then it's just pretty much a straight drop down the wall into the computer room. Would that work (have acceptable signal strength and be able to track multiple satellites), or should I just suck it up and mount it outside? I guess another thing I should look at is the temp specs, since attics get pretty hot down here in Houston during the summer.
