John,
    Going to have to wait, not worth a broken neck, I may get it off the ground on a mast and guy it just to try it out, but blizzard conditions are expected this week end so might have to wait. but as I said I will post on it's performance, if it has any.

  And here is your problems.  Antennas work much better
  if put up when there is snow on the roof.  Putting it
  up in a snowstorm adds 4db gain to any antenna.
